Well hi everyone, So about a month ago I overclocked my cpu (SABERTOOTH Z87 i7 4770k) and this week all my bios settings got deleted after my computer failed to load I turn it on fan starting to spin then he shut him self off and turn himself on to a bios error sadly so I redo the overclock all over again and the performance is worse then before the first overclock, I did the same overclock (with all the steps not jumping straight to my last setting and I got even better overclock) and I have no idea what's wrong I can tell that all that was changed was the cpu cooler and the whole pc cables
Tnx for everyone that helps!

well the settings are gone. safe them to a profile and usb stick the next time. for now theres no other option than to setup everything again. your performance loss is propably a placebo. try to set your windows power settings to high performance too, might be set to balanced. if set to balanced the cpu will not boost to max frequency in some games, since said games dont draw that much power.

IF YOU WANT ME TO REPLY TO YOU, QUOTE MY POST.

Thank you for the fast response, pretty sure the windows power settings is set to high settings but I will check it again today, what can I do about the system start failure because it's the 2nd time it happend

There is a savety featute ine BIOS that will reset set settings after it failed to start up X times to recover the system. It can be disabled.
 

About the performance: how old are the benchmarks you compare the system to? When they are old and you installed a lot of programms that runns in the background like steam this will lower the score.

keep your bios up2date, check your qcode on your motherboard (if it does display qcodes) check you ram settings and your voltages, it can be anything. tell us your specs and we might be able to help.

Set the priority of cinebench to high with the task manager.

I can't see the option on this screen shot. But I can't read the last line due to very low contrast.
