October 1, 20223 yr So sorry if I am beating a dead horse here but I just recently joined the OC club and was using Asus's XTU to overclock my Intel i9-7900x and then I discovered HWBOT and was not sure anymore what difference it makes of using Asus XTU or just the normal XTU. Since I have an Asus Rog Strix X299, which one is better or do you guys have a preference? I guess the normal XTU is more up to date? No?

So I went and uninstalled the Asus Software and installed the latest Intel XTU one. I went again to advanced and changed the settings to a very safe and working oc. Thing is, its not adapting. I set two cores to x45 and in CPU-Z I still those cores being at x43 which I have set in the bios. It did work though previously with the software to override it. What am I doing wrong or did I miss an option? I can also for some reason not SAVE a profile. I press "save" I type in a name and hit enter and its not saving the profile. If I save it again I dont see anything else than "default. I made sure to run the programm as admin..,,,
October 1, 20223 yr Author Update: Holly molly. What a rollercoaster. I uninstalled XTU and re-installed it fresh. It didnt even open anymore. It stopped working completelly. I uninstalled and installed back the ASUS version and everything is working like a charm now. It always goes back to the good old saying:"Never change a running system".
