That happens when I turned off the turbo mode, which I adjusted to the default setting using the band aid method. It resolved the issue and brought me to 3600mhz with spikes.

spiking temperatures or clock speed?
if temperatures are available, contact Intel support.
but if it's about clock speeds, everything is fine since the CPU has a strong turbo boost—there are various options, and you can disable all but keep 3.6GHz if needed.

5Ghz represents the highest turbo speed. unless a specific setting in the bios is active to maintain it at the top level, it remains standard. the i9 9900k features a base clock of 3.6 and can reach a maximum turboboost of 5.0.

The 9900k increases core frequency based on available power and workload. When a program uses two cores, it aims for maximum performance by raising those cores to 5GHz if possible, provided power and temperatures permit. For apps using eight cores, the same adjustment applies. If the motherboard lacks sufficient power, it will reduce the boost until all eight cores reach their capacity.

MCE functions similarly, providing turbo boosts based on current load, whereas MCE activates boosts for each core individually. This approach can cause higher temperatures if every core is pushed to 5GHz regardless of actual demand. Turning off MCE means boosting per-core as needed, while enabling MCE applies boosts in response to workload changes.

This method isn't a full overclock; it's Intel's turbo boost feature.
