Hey guys I recently overclocked my i7-4790k and managed to reach 4.7GHz. But while the tuning tool displays 4.7GHz, Windows reports 4GHz, the CPU Z shows 4.4 and the tuning utility says 4.7... I’m confused. Could it be because I didn’t update the BIOS? I thought I wasn’t required to do that with this tool. Thanks in advance.

Attempt to increase clock speed via BIOS settings, and check for the overclock display.
