Ryzen 3600 not boosting on b450-f

I have everything updated afaik. Latest 3003 BIOS, latest AMD chipset drivers.

No matter what settings I do such as PBO, Auto OC in Ryzen Master my CPU will just not boost past 3,900-3,950Mhz in any game. When idle, it maxes at 4,000

Temperature when playing even after 1 or 2 hours never goes above 60c which I feel has headroom for a boost to actually take place. Can anyone else with latest b450-f bios, a 3600 confirm via CPU-Z or afterburner that they are consistently getting boosts above 4Ghz?

Is there some magical holy grail BIOS setting to make this all work? as advertised? From what I understand I know getting a 4.2Ghz boost is very rare but I would have thought hitting 4.1Ghz would have been easily doable

Thank you

Have similar question for B450-F. With all UEFI overclocking settings in auto my Ryzen 2600 is default overclocked 13% to 3850 MHz (default clock for this model is 3400 MHz). My question is how to disable this overclock in UEFI. My XMP profile for RAM is accualy disabled but I can make it run in 3200 MHZ with 1.39V independently to CPU overclock. I want to bring back CPU idle and boost dynamic frequencies. Which setting is/are responsible for that? CPU clock is locked for that frequency so the boost mode (3900 MHz for this CPU) doesn't work and when CPU is in idle usage clock doesn't low either. Temperatures in idle are above 45-50 C.

I have a 3600 and with cpuz open its bouncing between 3599 and 4199. I haven't checked in game. With auto over clock it was bouncing between 3599 and 4299 if memory serves me correctly.the temps are better than mine im getting another cooler
