Hi,
I see you're working on overclocking your i6600k. It seems the BIOS is setting it to 44 x 100, but tools like Task Manager, CPUID, and NZXT Cam are reporting a lower speed of 3.3GHz. This discrepancy might be due to how the system is monitoring or interpreting the clock settings. Have you checked the BIOS configuration for any unexpected changes?
Working with a baseclock above 102 MHz often causes issues like corrupted OS drives, etc... (I'd be surprised if anything functions at 120 MHz...)
I would reset your BIOS and then switch the multiplier control to manual instead of the default/auto setting, provided you have a Z-series board, since you can't overclock without one.
Did you verify the file under load, download it, and then run OCCT to check for improvements?
I've reached 4.0ghz by adjusting the BCLK to 120, but the ratio remains fixed and can't be modified.
