Ryzen "2" ?

Ok if you mean the modes are actually operational by default then yes they stock enabled. I assume these two modes dont breach TDP spec right?
New stuff to learn here.
No idea about XFR and TDP. Wouldn't surprise me if it exceeds it.
AMD can setup AGESA however they want it's still up to Asus, Giga, MSI etc how they setup bios, and some of them give warning when you want to turn it on the function (my guess the rest will follow). Also there is a lot of information that PBO is at default/auto, but what does it mean as Asus PE has 4 stages and to have enhancement on you have to have it on level 3.
I'm assuming this is the CPU's ability to run higher performance RAM - which will likely be something like a bell shaped curve with a small number of CPUs with very poor ability i.e. can't manage more than 3400MHz then a broad cross section that can manage around 3400-3500MHz and then a smaller number again that can manage ~3600MHz.

hmm CH7, wonder if can do it on CH6. 
4.5Ghz.
Most reviewers got 4.3Ghz just by setting everything on auto and upping the clock multi, Guru3D got 4.4Ghz that way, its not surprising that with a bit of work fine tuning 4.5Ghz is in reach on a good board.
Yeah but read the thread from that post and you need to mess with the base clock that can lead to all kinds of stability problems and adds latency. Ok for getting high benching numbers but for myself I would stick to the auto method and get a fast rams kit as that seems to be the way to go for better 24/7 settings.
Yes but don't forget it's single threaded loads there, it's still using the same boost rules of less threads higher frequency.
Ryzen 2 doesn't need to be any faster Multithreaded, it already runs way out in front there, it does need a little bit in single threaded to catch up with Intel.
If you can overclock individual cores differently or set boost speeds? it is how i would run it.
the VII is a new board. they have a few tweaks but if you've already got a good x370 board it will be fine.
Interesting! It'd be nice if the P-state overclocking method included different states for different numbers of cores being stressed, or if there was an "overclock offset" ability, e.g. add +2 multiplier to every default level. Would take ages to verify as stable though.
This. He might as well just of put 1.6v through it going look at me.
I've got a Asus MAXIMUS VIII IMPACT Socket 1151 ITX with 6700K, looking at a new build in a bigger case.
I don't need to upgrade right now, so if there's a reason to wait, but I've already narrowed down my case choice - I'll transfer my Titan X Pascal, but I could consider selling the ITX board, cpu, memory, rad and pump/res with ITX case...
