The processor maxes out at 5.5ghz.
I noticed this CPU is supposed to reach up to 5.7 GHz, but it's only hit 5.5 so far. I've tried running the default BIOS settings for a while, except for the built-in RAM overclock. After adjusting the BIOS, voltages and temperatures have been fine-tuned. Many users face issues staying at 5.5, yet no clear fix has emerged. Anyone have ideas or solutions?
You're working with a workload that sees performance improvements capped at 5.7 under typical conditions, except for AVX which limits it to 4 threads. Running HWINFO alongside can affect these numbers.
You're running MSI Afterburner to set up a persistent display in your taskbar, and you're also verifying it through the hardware monitor.
