I just put in an i7 7700k on my asus z170-pro. My brand new i5 6600k was limiting my gtx 1080, so I replaced it. The AI suite software can't overclock the CPU. Anyone else face this issue?
Edit: I have the latest bios version 2202. I tried overclocking from the bios but still nothing.

My AISuite doesn't support auto-overclocking either (ASUS PRIME 270Z AR / i7 7700K / Corsair Venge. 3.2GHz), and I'm also stuck with DDR4 speeds capped at 2.5GHz, which is a real letdown.
The best I can achieve is around 4.8GHZ at 1.33VCore and 2.5GHz on the DIMM (I've updated the BIOS).
My only thought is that the cheap 750W PSU might be too unstable for reliable overclocking...
Sorry if this causes trouble for you.
