I need to adjust my CPU's settings so it returns to its standard speed when not in use. My concern is whether it can stop staying at a high frequency like 5GHz continuously. Is this achievable?

On Intel platforms, most users refer to this process as "overclocking." The CPU speed multiplier in these systems represents the highest possible increase the processor can achieve.

On AMD platforms, the CPU increases its speed until it reaches a physical limit. The boost rates claimed by AMD are very close to what the processors can actually attain without advanced cooling solutions.

Yes, it is feasible. Could you specify the motherboard and CPU you are employing?

I own an Aorus Pro Z390 and a delided 8700k from silicon lottery, which they tested stable up to 5.1ghz. Temperatures at stock levels never exceed 65c during heavy usage.

did you disable speed step?

I haven't overclocked it before. When I bought it, I only needed extra headroom for when I really wanted or needed it. Later I realized I could make mistakes and it wasn't just about flipping a switch, so I put it aside. Also, thinking it would always run at high speed didn't seem very appealing to me. But if there are just a few settings hidden somewhere that let the chip operate normally with a higher limit, I'd be interested in that.
