Ryzen 5700x stuck at 3.37 mhz/ A bit confused request assistance.
As the title states I'm having a bit of trouble trying to decipher why the 5700x wasnt going above base clock, it's currently a little under the base clock and PBO isn't activating at all. PBO was working yesterday boosting all cores to around 4.3-4.6 ghz under load but suddenly stops working today.
What I've tried
- Reset CMOS
- Reinstall Windows
- Install Chipset Drivers
- Ryzen Master set to Auto OC
- BIOS set PBO to Auto/Enabled
- Checked for overheating (non-existant)
- Checked Power Plan CPU setting and set to 100%
- Updated Bios to most recent stable version via Flashback.
- Checked wiring and reseated cables etc.
Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (non wifi)
CPU: Ryzen 5700x
RAM: Team Group 3200mhz CL16 32gb 2x16
EDIT:
Trying to mess with registry cpu went up to 3.40 base flat from 3.37 but still no boost
Also tried installer newer bios, no dice.
CURRENTLY: trying older bios as of June 3: 3:04pm
EDIT 2: Got off the phone with AMD support and currently on the phone with ASUS support
AMD support said it was motherboard limiting the voltage so the clocks arent able to go higher after requesting MSINFO/DXDIAG and all screenshots attached. as of 4:46pm
Update, I fixed it. I can't believe I fucking fixed it, the problem was Legacy windows interfering with all the things that I wanted to do.
I made a USB stick windows media installer, installed windows on my NVME via UEFI version and WIPED any trace of previous windows off of my old SSD. As soon as installed it and booted in and checked the task manager. BAM the speeds are FIXED, I literally spent the WHOLE day on this.
FOR ANYONE THAT HAS TO GO THROUGH THIS IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE UPDATE TO UEFI WINDOWS IF ALL THE THINGS LISTED DO NOT WORK FOR YOU, MAKE SURE YOU GOOGLE HOW TO TELL IF YOU HAVE LEGACY BIOS AND GET RID OF LEGACY!
