Right now my CPU runs at 4.2GHz. I was advised that using "Boost" could push it up to 5GHz. When I inquired about boosting performance, someone mentioned that the CPU automatically increases speed when under stress. Honestly, I’m not sure if that’s accurate, so I’m seeking clarification. If it isn’t, what steps should I take to reach 5GHz?

Hey there,
Just enter your bios and enable PBO. After that, save and close, and your CPU should adjust to its boost clocks based on the workload.

My motherboard is MSI, so what does PBO mean if it differs from yours?

PBO stands for Precision boost overdrive. This setting is available in the motherboard BIOS menu. Enable it and retest.
