How can i limit a 5800x clocks would i just set an all clock OC?

MY CPU just boost all the time lol.. i know right im complaining about too much performance.
MY CPU holds 4.85 ever time i do anything so i get temp spikes and the cooler fans ramp.
i've fitted a bigger cooler ands now it just hold boost for longer and get hot and the fans ramp

I have ECO mode on, and a curv optimiser @ -17 all cores,

When i got the cpu to replace my 5600 i just hoped it would hold 4.6Ghz in games like people told me but it hold's 4.85 to 4.75Ghz in games
now the temps are fine at 65c but the fans ramp to hold that temp so if i lower the fans speed it will obviously get hotter.
if there was a way to set the max boost to say 4.6Ghz that would lower temps and fan speed.

My new case as dropped GPU temps massively and ive added liquid metal so the GPU fans sit at 42% in games so i can barely hear them
all my system fanes are now silent wings 3 120mm/140mm so again at full speed i can't hear them...

But my CPU is just like oooo i'm cold, MORE POWER.. lol

Did I read that right. You’re complaining that the awesome 5800x sold to you is too good? :). I said it was a good sample.
Yes. Hahah

ECO mode will not affect the single core boost, and a curve optimiser @ -17 all cores will let the CPU boost longer. Sounds like you just need a fan curve setting or a quieter cooler/fan.

Well yes I have just plugged the new cooler in and set auto in bios

Im thinking i dont have my cooler mounted right, ive gone from an ITX case and low profile cooler to a Matx case with better flow and a AIO and now im getting game temps of 75c thats about 12c more.
im going to remount my cooler

Edit:
LMAO sorted it, i had my fans set in push / push haha, so now i have push pull.
I have just put it in a new case today and it turns out i am that stupid

which cooler you using with the cpu?

when i had the 5800x and even with the 5900x it will hit throttle temps on 6core or less loads since all the package power gets dumped into small surface area, easily seen in prime95 avx.

I’m using my son’s 240mm freezer 2.
The problem I had is I set up push pull but cocked up and set push push lol.

So after an hour gaming the rad was over run
 
Any idea what the setting is called?

in bios....
AMD Overclocking > PBO Setting > Max CPU boosh clock override (set enable plus or minus) > adjust in 50mhz steps

So if you set Enable Negative / 200, it should be 200mhz below the MAX pbo will try to boost. it dose and doesn't work lol
my cpu boosts to 4.85Ghz if i set negative 200 when it not under load i still see spikes to 4.85 but then you load up the chip with games or cinebench the max clock is 4.65

There's also the asus auto overclock
no if your going to manual then just do it your self. its a lot safter.

Yeah I didn't expect pbo to be so aggressive
is bios upto date? dose the board know what its boosting.

set everthing to auto and install ryzen master and use the curv optimiser, take about 40min to run and give you a good idea when can be done.
it will undervolt and find max stable clocks
 
Yeah it's on the latest bios 1101
Did curve optimiser previously in ryzen master
but under light loads it would randomly crash
2 or 3 times a day

yer i had that too, its when its set a little too low on the best cores, so they try to boost super high and run out of power..
if it sets say -17 and core 1 / 5 are the fastest, then them to -7 so they get a little more power.

you can see the fastest cores in RM, then just set curve in bios
