Hello, I have an asrock z68 extreme4 gen3 with an intel core i5 2500k.
The processor was overclocked to 4.4 Ghz a long time ago, and yesterday I was checking some things in cpu-z and it showed that it was working at 4.0 Ghz and at a voltage of 1.356 V!!
So when I went into the UEFI, OC tweaker showed that the current settings where all on default.
I started to tinker with the OC settings and nothing seemed to affect the cpu at all (the system info panel on the uefi and cpu-z still show 4 GHz, even after rebooting), then, as I was using a beta UEFI (2.31A) I thought that I should flash the latest non-beta version.
So I flashed UEFI 2.30 and the OC finally returned to stock settings, but i still can't use the OC tweaker in the UEFI to overclock, and what's worse, now the integrated gpu of the processor isn't showing up neither on the uefi settings, neither in any OS.
I have checked everything and I the only solution that comes to mind is buying a new uefi chip from ebay and hope that it fixes the problem.
So, before I buy it, does anyone have any insight on what could be happening?
Btw, I just checked and I can overclock the cpu through the axtu utility and the change shows up in the system info panel on the uefi
Thank you so much
