Is the Cinebench r15 score satisfactory for your needs?
It's all about comparison, as long as it matches other 9600K CPUs at 5.2 GHz. That said, I wouldn't rely on motherboard auto-overclocking utilities. They often raise the voltage unnecessarily, leading to higher temperatures and power consumption. Manual overclocking in the BIOS is recommended. Alternatively, you can explore Intel's new auto-OC tool.
