Problem with Clock

My I5 14600KF CPU is maintaining clock boost on desktop use. However, during the game, the clock drops and remains at the base clock.

This is not abnormal. Depending upon the state of the processor (cores active, temperature, voltages, etc.), the Turbo Boost capability will not have the headroom to activate. For more information, consult these resources:

I managed to discover the problem. It was a feature of the "Norton 360 for games" application that was turned on: game optimizer. In any case, I thank you for your prompt attention to the matter.
