i7-7700k WONT GO ABOVE 4.18 ghz speed

Hi,

im here for the first time and with a extremely anoying problem. Till today i had my i7-7700k overclocked at 4.8 ghz. Today i changed my GPU from gtx 1060 6gb to rtx 2060 super. And after playing for a while i saw my CPU wont speed up above 4.18 ghz, but in the bios it was overclocked at 4.8 ghz??? I run several benchmarks and it made 100% utilization and droped the speed instead of going to 4.8 ghz. It went down to 3.8ghz. It never happend before. The speed was always as much as i set it in bios. It was 4.79 or 4.8 solid. And now it wont go up 4.2ghz and it even drops belov 4.0ghz. Im desperated and dont know what to do help me gentlemen.
Best regards from slovenia

If someone from the LLT team wants to voluenter to connect to my pc with teamviewer and tries to fix itl be amazing.

What PSU? Might not be able to handle the load.

If the PSU couldn't take it the PC should crash

550 watts is twice what you need, even though the VS is not that good. However, have you used any software other than task manager to validate the clock speeds? It has a bad habit of being wrong. 

 

also make sure to quote us so we see your responses.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

Ok so when you set a different overclock in the BIOS like 4.3 or 4.5 do you get a difference?

Im all awake and turned on the pc. Well suprisingly it all works and i did nothing. Its overclocked as its supposed to be and it didnt drop any % of speed during prime95. I dont know what to do if it happens again that it wont go up 4.2ghz.

Some mobos are able to see if the input voltage is sagging and limit/reduce draw
