So I'm having a bit of a problem with my PC at the moment, My CPU won't go past .76GHz for whatever reason or 20% usage, It is not a temperature issue, as seen below. It occured after I installed Formula Overdrive (it did nothing so I uninstalled it) then saw that my CPU would no longer go past 20% usage or .76GHz

A few things ive tried, Resetting bios, stressing the CPU.
Specs

6700k, Z170 OC Formula, 750w G2, 16GB of TridentZ, GTX 1070 FTW, and h100i v2

They hold across everything. Including CPU-Z and UEFI

Have you checked all your connections, reseated the CPU power connector?

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

Yes, they're all connected properly.

I'm out of ideas beyond rolling back to a system restore point from before you installed Formula Overdrive, so I'll let others chime in.

Going out on a limb here but maybe Intel SpeedStep is enabled in BIOS?

It shouldn't stay enabled once you put the CPU under load though so I doubt it but it's work checking out.

No luck there, I disabled it and enabled it again. Still stuck :c
