Using Asrock automatic overclock setiing, my CPU would run at 3.8Ghz even when idle. How to make the CPU run at high clock speed only when neccessary after being overclocked?
bclk overclocking disables intel's speedstep which is responsible for adjusting the speed of the CPU according to varying workloads.

So what is your answer to my question: can I make the CPU run at high clock speed only when necessary after being overclocked? I guess it's a No, right?
pretty much, this is why most people stay away from BCLK ocing. though the asrock B150m pro4/hyper is a good motherboard, the cpu always running at 3.8 GHz will only increase power consumption and not decrease the lifespan. what voltage have you set for the cores? im sure that you can overclock the i7 6700 a lot more. how much of an oc did you apply?
