As you've discovered there's a lot of settings. From my experience, most of them aren't really needed to help and many of them are interrelated; making a change to one doesn't help, or even hurts if not setting another. Also, how controls work depends on specific generation of Ryzen and whether it's a CPU or an APU.
The best approach is to following guides (as you found) and limit adjustments to what they're saying. It's especially important to follow along with the guides' explanation of the principles.
And read several guides, not just one. And watch youtube videos...several.
Once you've played around ask specific questions concerning controls you're wondering about.
