cpu over clocking
it seems the device locks at 3.78 ghz but you're trying to reach 3.9 ghz, which is why it doesn't work.
Your i7 6850k isn't hitting 4ghz across all cores, with only one running at full speed and others at 3.8ghz. Someone can assist you in getting everything to operate at 4ghz.
3.8 represents the main turbo boost for that chip. 4.0 refers to Intel's turbo 3.0, which usually means one core might reach about 4.0GHz when conditions are just right. Your CPU is functioning as expected. This process is known as Boost/Turbo and isn't considered overclocking technically.
You'd need to manually increase its speed, which requires careful preparation and thorough research before proceeding. There are many resources available on this topic in the forum. You must ensure your motherboard supports overclocking and has a suitable cooler.
When attempting to overclock my i7 6850k to 4ghz, only one core reaches 4ghz while the others remain at 3.8ghz. Some users have reported achieving full-core overclocks. Could you provide more details?
