I have always had my clock speed at 4800mhz on my Kaby Lake I7700K with my Giga Z270X Gaming 7
Now it's gone down for no reason to 4200 mhz but I noted in Bios it was 4800mhz after I booted into bios (didn't change any settings from previous attempts) When I rebooted (didn't save settings) it won't go past 4200 mhz .. I have tried the overclocking settings I originally used (advanced configuration) Not the easy settings.
but I cannot get it back up to 4800mhz in Windows 11.. What am I doing wrong here?

I figured this one out for myself. I had balanced Power Settings in C/P changed it to ultimate. Case Closed.
