It seems like when i hit K boost on the case nothing happens....If i do it in the other software it switches display and clc goes bax like i have set...HOWEVER the cpu speed only goes up to 4.3ghz...any ideas?  All settings are default pretty much.

    The 8700k will only run at 4.3GHz on all 6 cores when they are all being used. Only 4-5 cores being used = 4.4GHz. 3 cores = 4.5GHz. 2 cores = 4.6GHz. Single core = 4.7GHz.

    Good info... So basically need to overclock in the BIOS first, then set the DG tuner to run at startup.  Then i can tweak the balanced cpu settings etc to be what i want until K boost is hit. I will try that tonight, hopefully the physical button will work tonight.
