So I used OC Genie II to quickly overclock my 3570K cause I have school and didn't have the time to properly overclock. When I first did it I got a 4.2 GHZ OC and I was pretty happy with that. Well I used MSI Live Update 5 to update my BIOS and now in the BIOS it says I'm on Standard mode and it won't let me switch to OC Genie II mode, but I've checked and my CPU is now running at 3.7 GHZ. If I hit the clear CMOS button on the back will it reset my BIOS? And do I have to do it while shut down or in the BIOS? I am going to run Prime95 to see if there are any stability issues. A quick response would be great! Thanks!

Edit: Oops forgot about Intel CPU boost, it actually pushes it up to 3.6 but sometimes it reaches 3.7
