I know it's been about a week and a half since posting this but I've read over all the opinions and after taking everything into consideration I think I am going to wait. As enticing as a 2080ti would be right now my 1070ti will suffice. I was also able to get a +200mhz core +400mhz ram clock stable on the 1070ti and am managing a few more frames. Thanks everyone for the input.

I recently purchased a new monitor capable of 1440p/144hz/10-bit/HDR all that fancy stuff, and while my current Gigabyte 1070 ti is doing most games at 60fps or more, I have been thinking of getting a 2080 ti to achieve 144hz at 1440p. My concern is that I don’t really want to buy a 2080 ti now and then later in the year Nvidia release 30 series cards, but then again my 1070 ti is starting to show its age at this point and can’t hold a stable oc. I’m more or less just looking for options from the other users here on what you guys would do in my shoes.

No updates as of so far. Tried everything besides wiping windows and doing a clean install but I can't see that helping. Multiplier is set to 44 on all 6 cores in bios but now task manager and any other software that monitors CPU frequency shows I'm at 4.0ghz on all cores. Memory and GPU overclocks all stay but for whatever reason I still cannot get the CPU to OC correctly.

I've tried through the MSI live update tool and by using the M-flash feature in the bios already. I'll try the M-flash again later and see if I can find any other way to try and flash bios.

I've had this problem for about a month and ever before then my settings have never changed. Then one day I turned my computer on and noticed my fans weren't spinning as fast as they normally do. I've tried just about everything I can think of minus flashing the bios. I can't get the newer bios version to stick, according to bios I still have the P5 version and the P6 version came out some time in mid June. Turbo boost is disabled in the bios but in Intel's Extreme Tuning Utility it's on and when I try to turn it off after reboot I get an error that simply states that it couldn't be turned off. I have never been able to actually access the Intel Turbo Boost Max 3.0 application, I get a ITBM driver not available error. Tried re-downloading the driver and it gives me an error saying my system doesn't meet the minimum requirement for installing this software. I tried resetting my bios settings and re-applying the overclock but the closest I've gotten to is the speed fluctuating between 3.80-3.85ghz. I'm completely out of ideas and any advise would be appreciated because I just can't figure this out on my own. If you need any more information let me know I'll try my best to provide what I can.
