I discovered a bug using the OC button/knob on my main board. I wanted to see what would happen if I turned it to one. The button/knob has 12 settings. After overclocking, the CPU didn’t gain much but ran hotter—default 4.2Ghz and then OC to 4.25Ghz. I turned it off again, setting the knob to zero. When I booted into Windows, the CPU was at 4.7Ghz single core and 4.45Ghz multicore. I ran over 2000 points in Cinebench R23, but my scores stayed the same as default. The task manager showed 4.45Ghz, while Ryzen Master only reported 3.9Ghz. Userbench https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/55244653 is interesting. Anyone else had this issue? Is it a bug or just normal boosting? If so, why are my scores on Userbench so much higher than others? Could be a silicon lottery? I might make a video about it. Thanks in advance.

Has no idea about this overclocking feature. It might alter everything!

The performance shows solid results with consistent validation across tests. It delivers reliable output and meets expected standards for its class.

It seems like you're asking about a missing knob. Are you looking for information on how to fix or replace it?

There is a knob.Trying around. Right now. But it seems like to be some kind of Turbo/Boosting from the CPU. Room temp rise less performance. It stays at 80c°

The task manager indicates the base clock is 4.25Ghz, matching the OC Profile 1 behavior. It appears the OC was not disabled.

It picks factory prebaked overclocks, which are well-known for handling excessive voltage since they must function on every chip. I thought it was just a joke. It turns out they still work that way. To make them operate, you usually have to adjust them manually. If they run, they can burn the chip early due to the high voltage. Maybe you could be lucky.
