I OCd my i5 6600k for 4.4 ghz @ 1.32 V and did stress tests and everything was stable. Then i did cinebench and i gained 735 score and i got 607 @ stock but cinebench showed my core clock as 3.51 ghz. Then i checked cpuz and other programs and thay all showed that my cpu is running @ 3.51 ghz. What is going on because i gained performance but nothing shows that i oc:d.

Did you check CPU-Z while running CPU intensive loads? What does your bios say you're running at?

There's a couple of places on CPU-Z and all of cinebench where it only states the stock clock of your CPU, go by what your BIOS/UEFI tells you, don't mind what the programs say.

did you use software while you were in windows/anyos ? if you used software it may automatically load the oc settings on boot.

For me Cinebench shows my i5's stock speed when i'm running at 4.2GHz and CPU-Z confirms that.

Bios says 4.4 ghz
