What's the normal for 7800X3D boost clocks, only had the system up and running a week now, no real time to fiddle with it yet etc only a few minor things enabled EXPO Tweaked, made sure soc voltage was correct and ram timings ram is 6000 cl30, installed ryzen master but haven't used it yet running without pbo at present

Anyway, I'm seeing 4 cores boosting quite high ranging from 5150 to 5430 something, it's fairly cool with an arctic 2 360 cooling it at these speeds max temp was 66.7

Just wondered If this is expected behaviour before I start tinkering etc

Check again, the 7800X3D is locked to 5050mhz maximum*

and no way is a maxed out 7800X3D only hitting 67 degrees, 80 degrees on an Artic 360 is more like it ( i have one ), unless Gt. Yarmouth is suddenly in an Ice Age.

( * Edit - yes i know its possible to use an external clk generator to bypass the lock )

cinebench r23 multicore will likely get your cpu up and above 80c if you wanna see lol
 
Had a look into it this morning, hwmonitor is the suspect, incorrect reporting, will get aida64 setup later.
I had this. Cant remember which one is which but I think it was HWmonitor (more basic one) was telling me my 7800x3d was hitting highs of 5.7ghz....switched to the more in-depth monitor program (HWinfo) and it doesn't give me crazy numbers

Edit - was actually 7ghz ...

for those on asus (maybe other mb's?) what is your SP rating of the cpu in bios? Mine says 91, does it necessarily mean it will overclock or generally perform better the higher it is?
