Ryzen 3600 + Cool & Quiet

Just wondering what other people's experiences of using **** & Quiet have been as I'm seeing some slightly unexpected results.

I'm running an all core manual 4.2GHz overclock at 1.37V VCore. With Cool & Quiet disabled, the individual core voltages sit at around 1.1V idle and 1.075 under load which I'd expect, but for some reason if I enable Cool & Quiet, the VIDs for the cores idle at around 1.4V and drop to 1.35 under load - which is essentially the opposite of the result I would have expected for a feature designed to keep temperatures down.

Has anyone else seen this happening? Am I completely misunderstanding how Cool & Quiet is supposed to work? Because I cannot see any advantage in having the VID for individual cores so high.

Any info greatly appreciated.
 
Well I just tried turning off the Quiet and Cool on/off and results were the same sitting idle and load dropped to 1.28v.
I have 4250 @ 1.300v in BIOS and I do not have a clue if quiet and cool works properly with fixed voltage.Hell i do not even know if quiet and cool works at all with Ryzen.
All I tested is quiet and cool on for stability and not tested with it off for stability.
