The psu appears to be excellent for a pre-built system. There definitely needs to be a CPU fan; otherwise, the computer wouldn't function properly. You might want to clean the fan or replace it with a better one. Additionally, if dxdiag only shows gigabyte, you should download speccy so you can identify the model and let me know.

Additionally, the frequency spikes occur from 1000 to 4000 across all four CPUs.

The spike is acceptable; it seems to be turbo core technology that reduces the frequency during idle, especially when you don’t require 4ghz. Also, could you share your CPU cooler and motherboard details? It’s important to ensure you’re not overclocking if your system can’t handle it.

When your motherboard, cooler, and power supply unit can handle overclocking, you should easily achieve 4.5 ghz.

An overclock might offer some improvement, but with that APU you'll still face limitations.

To find out your motherboard details, you can use a compatible tool or software that checks system specifications. For a cooler with 600-500W power supply, ensure it matches your system's requirements before proceeding.

ChillyMen:
To check the motherboard without a cooler, use the dxdiag command from the start button. This will show the details of your motherboard. Regarding the cooler, make sure to mention the specific power supply model when asking for information.
