Help with kaby lake
I own a kaby lake i7 7700k with a gigabyte z170 chipset motherboard. I tried overclocking, but temperatures were too high and I’m not very experienced to adjust further, so I reset the motherboard to its default settings. Now it only reaches 4.4 GHz instead of the previous 4.5 before stable temperatures. What should I do?
z270 mobos offer significantly better stability for overclocking compared to z170s. The quality of your power supply also plays a role in how well you can push your system. If you have a reliable PSU, it's possible you may have missed out on the opportunity to use more powerful chips. Consider returning any units that are outside the return window if they aren't suitable. To help, please share the screenshot of your overclocking settings.

Thank you for your prompt reply. I'm currently working with the gigabyte UEFI/Bios setup and need a screenshot for reference.
