CPU downclocking itself to 800 Mhz

[manofsteel]

Hi,

 

So i have a little problem, today i noticed strange behavior of my CPU that is i5 6600k and it gets wonclocked to 800 Mhz when i got FFXIV open and watch something on YT or HTML5 video upload thingy (like movies or animes :P). Once i pause the video, the clock speed is okay (no drops fps are good cuz i have counter and the is no staggering from sound of the movie i watch :P). Thermals are okayish (not getting to 80 but exceeding slightly above the 70 rads of celsius) ,

 

HALP!

 

Cheers

Intel Speed-Step is on, that's why.

also a lot of cpus have a boost clock on top of the regular freq

the think is , mine is overclocked to 4,3 so boost clock i think is less an source of a problem. Also, as i mentioned earlier it just started to behave like this today

Try clearing CMOS.

Cleared CMOS in Bios (set to default) and no change. Checked if there is bend pin or thermal under the CPU, nothing there. Everything seems fine and it worked fine until now. What could cause this issue?

[manofsteel]

Nobody can help meh ;w;?

Okay i found the culprit, it was one of the sensors on MB. I turned it off and it worked to some extend. Sadly my OC does not work properly (it stays at 4 GHz instead of 4,3 GHz) anything to be done here?
