We anticipate this outcome since the maximum boost clock is limited to single-core tasks. Which stress tests are being executed? They’re slightly reduced compared to expectations. Please confirm PBO is active and verify the power constraints are configured correctly.
I'm not sure how to handle that, but your CPU was running at a high power usage and causing strain.
I adjusted my 5900x with PBO slightly by hand, reaching roughly 4.6ghz across the core. Based on that, I expect a similar setup to yield about 4.4ghz, though at the default setting it should be between 4.1 and 4.2ghz per core.
Avoid using Ryzen with the same sensors; they often misinterpret readings. The 3.9-4GHz range is still decent, but I’d expect around 4.2-4.4GHz stock. It might just be struggling to detect accurately. Check the BIOS settings, enter advanced mode, and look for the first available option.
I verified the clock speeds via the armory crate during single-core operation, and they matched the display monitor readings.
From what I understand, the Armoury Crate you’re using might have problems; the version you need is usually Ryzen Master or HWInfo64, which are the most dependable tools for Ryzen systems.
