I overclocked my cpu a while back at around 4.5GHz at around 1.4+ volts and to do that I disabled Turbo mode in my UEFI. After a week I went back to the default speed and voltage of my cpu, which is 3.8 GHz at around 1.3 volts. I went back to my UEFI and turned on turbo mode but i left AMD Cool&Quiet turned off. Now I can't figure out why my cpu is always running at 4.2GHz ALL THE TIME. I hope someone can enlighten me on the subject. I'm not frustrated, I just wan't to learn

. I agree that the board I have is very troublesome. I updated it to be able to overclock my cpu but that didn't work. I just overclocked it on AMD OverDrive. After a week or two, it finally allowed me to tweak my cpu through UEFI. The PCI-E slots are placed prematurely with the 16x slot being on the top instead of the 1x slot which makes it hard to install a 1x WIFI card. Plus, all of the pins are on the bottom which makes it look like an octopus with all the wires.
