AI Suite III Messed up Mobo Settings

[Taylor Dettling]

I have a Z170-Deluxe and I recently installed AI Suite and it changed some setting automatically. Before the CPU (6700K) would lower the clocks when at idle like it should but now it is pinned at 4 ghz at a minimum. I uninstalled AI Suite and I have combed the BIOS for a setting to fix this to no avail. I also tried hitting F5 for optimized defaults but that did not solve the problem. Any ideas oh how to put the settings back to stock?

It also removed my overclock which was at 4.6 ghz and it now did its own overclock at 4.2 ghz. I uninstalled AI Suite and I have combed the BIOS for a setting to fix this to no avail.

Reset the cmos. Check the motherboard manual on how to do that. It sounds like it is stock settings though; the 4.2 ghz is the stock boost.

Ok. 4.2 is stock boost but it shouldn't be pinned at 4.0 GHz. I will reset the CMOS if it comes to that but I would rather not loose all my other settings as well. I guess it will be fine if it stays at 4 GHz right?
