Your processor is exceeding its default timing limits.
Hello, your Ryzen 5 1600AF runs at 3.2GHz and boosts to 3.6GHz during games like Rainbow Six Siege. This behavior is typical for Ryzen processors, as they often overclock to improve performance. Your setup seems well-configured with the right RAM and cooler, so you’re unlikely facing a CPU issue. Enjoy the game!
Inside a small box, labeled as a casket, I'll send it to you. Handle it yourself—I'm not sure what the 1600AF boost clocks are, but they sound pretty standard from what you described.
Modern CPUs are capable enough that when they have enough thermal and power capacity, they can safely boost their speed to enhance performance. This behavior is completely typical.
