3770k won't stay @ 4.4ghz

[timesavage]

Hey group, still a noob at overclocking but enjoying it. I tried BIOS and Asus Suite, and i achieved 4.4ghz stable. But CPUID shows a jump to 4.4 then settles at 1.5, how do I get it to run at 4.4 24/7? Thanks for the help!

Disable EIST, C1E, C3 and C6 Reports, and Package C State Support, and make sure Windows is set to Max Performance in the Power Options.

I'm new to overclocking too and have a question. Why do you not want the chip to throttle back? I've got mine set so that when it's not working it throttles back to 1600. Put it under load and it runs up to 4700. My line of thought was that if the chip is running slower it will be cooler and that might extend its service life. Am I wrong?

You are right , I do want it to throttle back, but every time I run mark 11, it reports back that I'm running at 1500, not 4400, is there a fix for that? That us what I'm looking for, keeping my CPU at 4400 when benchmarking? Help please!
