Don't mean to insult you but are you sure you didn't get the non k version of the 9700?

 

[Mr.Scott]

Pic in link shows 9700K.

What does the CPU read when it is not underload?

JeffM, we would prefer you attach your pics directly to your posts rather than link them. You can use the icon tool in the tool bar of the new post window or the "Go Advanced" button at the lower right corner of any new post window.

Okay, we need some clarity here on your problem.

What speed were you trying to overclock to? 4.7 ghz or higher? If only 4.7 ghz the pic of CPU-z shows you are reaching that. And TaskManager shows 4.68 ghz so you're good to go. .02 ghz is a normal variation in reporting software and even of the systems' frequency metronome itself.

 

[Mr.Scott]

I see a try of 50 on cpu multi. That tells me he's trying for 5 gig or better.
That ain't gonna happen on ambient temps usually. At least with any kind of 24/7 stability.

Yes, I see 50x now in OP's first post. Missed that.

JeffM, do you have the most recent bios version installed? I'm guessing this is a bios issue.

Try changing only the multiplier and the voltage while leaving all else on auto. I think disabling EIST may be your problem. I think disabling it limits you to turbo speeds.

all this was happening because of the bios battery

On a board manufactured that recently? That is weird. I usually only see depleted CMOS batteries on units that are like 10 years old.
