The system started with Windows and apps only recognizing 6 out of 12 cores. After installing Ryzen Master, it detected 8 out of 16 cores now. It didn’t boost before, even though it said 6/12. Setting the core frequency to 3.8 worked, but boosting stopped once it reached the set speed. Trying BIOS settings and adjusting PBO didn’t help.
Reset CMOS successfully. Achieved overclocking to 4.6 across all cores without problems—temperatures reached 80°C but functioned properly. Boost stopped after restarting back to the 3600 MHz setting. Program testing showed improvement, but not with the 5800X.
the system identifying the processor as having six cores instead of eight raises some questions, wasn't this an older Windows setup with a six-core configuration? keep in mind that when you adjust the clock speed manually, the CPU will cap itself accordingly, which isn't too significant based on my observations. I've seen my 5800x reach up to 4650 clocks per core even when undervolting, so fine-tuning manually can boost multi-core performance with minimal impact on single-core speed. From what I understand, this usually leads to improved overall performance since boosts tend to drop below 4650 when more than a few threads are busy. First, consider resetting your BIOS, applying optimized defaults, loading the DOCP profile for your RAM, and then saving your changes before testing in Windows. If that doesn't resolve the issue, review the AMD Overclocking Eco Mode, AMD CBS Core Performance Boost, and Pstate settings—disabling some may help. You can also adjust the base clock found in custom Pstate0 under AMD CBS, or check Windows power settings for potential interference. Software might also be contributing to the problem.
the windows install isnt that old but. yea it took installing ryzen master before windows realized oh i do have a 8/16 cpu lol i reset bios. and already did everything in bios i can i have windows power settings to ryzen high performance i even went and looked through the advanced just in case something there changed. if this is some damn windows setting thats messed up...dammit where is it lol
fixed it..reset bios and looked even more in each tab.....apparently theres 2 places to enable PBO on my asus board the different sites said it was in advanced (which it was) it was the one under ai tweaker that needed enabled..now it boosts 4.8 single the rest were 4.4 but damn it got hot quick, it tried to go 4.6 the rest of cores but it was thermal throttling...almost instant 90c doing cinebench but dropped back again almost instant to 43c when done...cant wait for water cooler to come in
If your system correctly reads the CPU, it should automatically remove Ryzen-specific power plans after updating the chipset driver. The 5000 series doesn’t rely on them. There might be residual settings from older hardware preventing Windows from detecting the CPU properly. A clean installation could resolve this. Also, with two PBO slots available on Asus boards, it can be frustrating to manage. You could adjust AMD PBO advanced settings in the AMD Overclocking section of the BIOS to enable PBO2 and lower core voltage slightly, which might help with temperature control—though results have been inconsistent for me.
ASUS might have dropped a new BIOS version. You'll need at least AGESA 1.1.8.0 to run Curve Optimizer. I own the MSI B550 Tomahawk and they provide a compatible BIOS. It helped me out. My 5800X previously ran at 1.334V with 4.60GHz under 82°C, now it's stable at 1.264V and 4.723GHz at 78°C.
I managed to get it functioning. After installing the watercooling, it started making noise right away. The peak temperature reached 73°C, and it hit 5.2 several times during a Cinebench single-core run. It stayed at 4.7 in multi-threaded mode. Overall, I'm satisfied now, lol.
