I’m just starting with PCs and wanted to know why my core speed on the Ryzen 2600x feels so fast. When I power it on, it’s running at 3600MHz, but right now it’s at 4200MHz. I think this might be related to my power plan—maybe "Ryzen Balanced" is the one. My EDC stays high, around 80% or more, and I notice the CPU settings reset to stock mode each time I try to change them. Thanks!

Did you refresh your BIOS, chipset drivers, or operating system? It looks like PBO is turned on automatically and is enhancing performance beyond the standard upgrade.

I realized what was going on. The Core Performance Boost was turned on automatically. I turned it off and my core speed returned to 3600.

You don't want the machine to determine its own effectiveness because it could lead to inaccurate assessments and poor decision-making.
