You've constructed a fresh PC and observed your CPU's clock speed reported by HWMonitor significantly exceeds the claimed 5-6GHz. This could indicate either a software glitch or an unusual hardware behavior. It's worth checking if the BIOS settings, thermal throttling, or driver configurations are affecting the readings.
HWMonitor isn't interpreting Ryzen chips properly—it's been an issue since the first generation of Ryzen. For accurate readings, try HWINFO64 or Ryzen Master.
