It seems when I overclock (yes being kinda a noob) my system lags or is throttled and a 4.5ghz boost is switched to (7-20x) randomly when needed and seems to jump cpu up when needed but give me what looks like a lag spike....

Even in auto oc with amd overdrive or onboard options (m5a99fx pro r2.0 fx8320) it hangs like 2-3 seconds when i type in games. (internet router not the issue)

PS
power saving cie/apm/etc turned off.

I am confused it lags even on flashed bios sometimes and CPU goes 7-20x ratio but still should not lag on stock bios I wouldnt think....

could my cpu be getting too cold? reads 1/1/10 on value/min/max? (HwMonitor)
