hey,
as stated in topic - my CPU goes down to ~900-1500MHz even while gaming.

that problem started like two weeks ago - and I don't know the reason why.

My hardware is the following:

Motherboard: ASUS Z97-P
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690k [not overclocked]
Graphics Card: Gainward GTX 1060 6GB
RAM: 8GB Ballistix Sport DDR3-1600
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

What I tried doing:

- Updated my BIOS -
- Intel Extreme Tuning Utility - https://i.gyazo.com/dd287189ffcebbe084a3e036b55f03d1.png
- switched off all power saving options in BIOS, even tried turning on the turbo modes, tried overclocking to 4.5GHz -
- resetted my BIOS to default options -
- turned on high performance option in Windows -

If that could be helpful; my PC is like 1 year old, I clean it frequently. Thermal Paste is changed each three months, but the temperatures ain't the problem.

Hope somebody knows the answer, as I have no idea what to do.
