I5 4690k Downclocking under load

[lilwic]

For whatever reason the past like year my i5 4690k has been downclocking itself down to 3.68Ghz whenever under load above like 70% usage. I've tried to disable all the eco settings and some of the other stuff in my Bios settings. One thing i read said to disable the Intel turbo boost setting in Bios but when I did that my CPU was just stuck at its base 3.5Ghz. It's not temps because my CPU NEVER gets above 60C and is mostly at around 50C under full load playing games. If any of yall have any ideas it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

this is totally normal, the single core turbo is 3.9

But in that case shouldn't it be clocking to 3.9 in task manager instead of the 3.68 that task manager is showning? Also I can't seem to do any overclocking on my motherboard because if I do it'll just go into a boot loop so that why im just trying to get the most out of the stock turbo clock. Although maybe I'm just not experienced enough with CPU overclocking, most of my oc experience is with MSI afterburner on my GPU...

Over 70% load means more than a single core is being worked

So if all of the cores are put under load then all the cores will go down to what is basically 3.7Ghz? But if its just one core it will be at 3.9Ghz?
