    Recently I encountered an issue in Dragon Center where the system tuner wouldn't switch correctly.

    Everything from TURBO to ECO runs at 4.2GHz and even in the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility (XTU).
    I modified the overclock value in BIOS and everything should have worked perfectly with the BIOS + XTU + Dragon Center. I'd like to also mention when I press on Turbo mode and select the settings icon and set every core to 41x it does change in XTU. However, If I press ECO it's still at 42x.

    Any ideas?

    You can see that my user.config shows that Dragon Center sticks to 42x for ShiftTypeInAC #3 (ECO MODE)

    Code:

    Fixed!
    A BIOS reset worked.
    Thanks to @Phoenix for being the only one to help me out meanwhile the rest of the forums couldn't figure it out :bigtongue:.
