Do you know how to adjust boost clocks and manage power on this board? I've looked but nothing clear comes up, especially since the guides seem outdated. I'm trying to lower the boost voltage to keep temperatures down (currently around 1.42V on auto). Ideally I want it capped at about 1.4V max, maybe even lower. The only method I've found is using cstates that fixes clocks to 4.2, but then it doesn't return to the normal 3.6 speed. My setup involves light daytime use and occasional gaming sessions. I'm new to AMD and my previous Intel motherboard was easier to configure. It seems this board doesn’t report total system power draw, so I’m having trouble with thermal management. I really appreciate the performance of RyzeZ 5 over Ivy Bridge but am having issues with power efficiency.
