So I was looking up guides to overclocking and have constantly visited the bios to learn where everything was placed. However I would mess with the presets on the motherboard to the Gamer's OC Profile or other cpu presets. I would check the changes made and exit without saving. My normal clock speed is 3.5 with 3.9 turbo. After a few times entering the bios, I accidentally saved so I loaded the optimized settings, although it feels some settings were still off. I ended up clearing the cmos and now I look at my clock speed using CPU-Z and it says 3920.0. I cannot tell if that is my turbo kicking in, but this shows on idle. On Aida64 it says its OC'ed 12%. This was all after I cleared the cmos. Like I said previously, I'm not sure if this is the turbo activating.

*This is my first build and today was my first time diving into overclocking.
*Primarily the presets were the only thing I really dived into so no manual changes.
