Tested the tweak and thought I would drop this here for anyone interested.Tweak has been around since July/August but works good now with updated Motherboard BIOS/AMD Chipset.

Here is one thread on the tweak,there are others.Read thread if you want to try it out.

AMD 3800X Battlefield 5 2560x1440 Ultra settings

Default BIOS setting @60 FPS Cap- CPU Frequency Range 4350Mhz - 4425Mhz - Avg 4400Mhz
BIOS boost EDC set to 1A @60 FPS Cap- CPU Frequency Range 4475Mhz - 4550Mhz - Avg 4525Mhz
BIOS boost EDC set to 10A @60 FPS Cap- CPU Frequency Range 4500Mhz - 4575Mhz - Avg 4525Mhz
BIOS boost EDC set to 1A @120 FPS Cap- CPU Frequency Range 4450Mhz - 4525Mhz - Avg 4475Mhz
 
Interesting, this certainly gave my 3900x another 100Mhz boost clock in all situations. Now see 2 cores at 4.7ghz under very light load and six reach 4.6Ghz or over. Running the stock cooler.
Boost been around since July/August the first time I tried it.It just works better lately , one must find what works on there CPU and motherboard if they want to give it a shot.
Normal settings on Ryzen CPU's are fine also.Windows power plans have an affect on single threaded applications.Make your own for best results.

Also light gaming loads can hold 4600Mhz and up to 4650Mhz on 3800X.I could always hit 4650Mhz but never hold 4600Mhz.

Light gaming loads all core boost up to 4625Mhz Outlast 2 Peaks 4650Mhz

Normal to heavy gaming loads all core boost up to 4575Mhz Red Dead Redemption 2 Peak 4600Mhz

Last 4 Normal Cinebench20 single thread runs 534/534/530/530 seems ok to me

Shocking I offended someone on the internet.Now you inspired me to upload 30FPS and 165FPS caps.I will of course need your blessing and permission.
