the i5-7600k struggles to exceed 4.0ghz during overclocking
I'm just starting out with overclocking and I installed Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and CoreTemp. When I tried to push it beyond the base frequency of 3.8ghz, it only reached 4.0ghz. I also attempted higher values like 4.1 or 4.2, but it consistently stayed at 4.0ghz. Additionally, the temperatures didn't exceed 68 degrees.
I have an ASUS Strix B250 Gaming motherboard and a CM hyper 212 LED fan.
Thanks in advance
