Hey, complete noob to the current CPU gen. Have read about boosting. I understand the basic jist is that the cpu will usually perform at a lower clock for power saving etc, and boost up if needed.

Watching my clock speed graphs on Afterburner (https://prnt.sc/11ipdse) it appears that the cpu is boosting all the time, just during normal usage on internet browser. Is this normal? It seems the CPU fan is boosting up and down as well, when I have actually set it to a constant curve on the BIOS.
