The multicore scores are lower than anticipated because the system initially runs at 4.2 GHz per core without PBO, then gradually decreases to around 4 GHz. This behavior may stem from cooling issues—temperatures stay near 87°C but remain below thermal limits, which could trigger throttling. In Ryzen Master, PPT is at 76W and EDC at 90A, both at full capacity; these values might be influencing the throttle response. TDC is 87% of 60A and CPU power is 57W, indicating the performance characteristics align with expected behavior.
The trash board could trigger CPU throttling. Are you using a capped PPT? In any case, your score of 10,300 versus 11,000 isn't that bad according to reviews, but it happens on bare systems with minimal background processes.
PPT and EDC at full capacity significantly raise the pbo limits. You can adjust the settings in the bios manually, which won’t pose any risk—though I’m not sure if the info about 85°C starting to reduce is accurate.
that's why......... uninstall this, it sucks. its simply a threshold every cpu has at some point with ryzen its usually around 80c, you really want to be *under* that at all times... what are even the "expected" values? are you aware there's a silicone lottery also? For example my 5800x3D scores higher than reviews, but that's most because i have good cooling, but maybe also got lucky... max temp is ~76c (with pbo2 -30 all core) ^ and scores are still better than "reviews" without pbo........... tldr: improve your cooling
In this situation, what counts as "stock" can vary. An A320 board won't match the specifications of an X570, and those specs might fall short of your CPU's capabilities combined with adequate cooling.
Without PBO, the stock limits would remain identical across all boards.
Absolutely, it’s mainly about cooling and the quality of the setup. Even with powerful GPUs, good temperatures are crucial. The issue here isn’t just the CPU speed but how the system handles boost and the importance of solid cooling. This is why NVIDIA CPUs behave similarly across different boards—thermal management matters more than raw specs.
