Things that make me go hmmm... Overclocking my 1700

When i set a manual 3.9 GHZ 1.325 v overclock in bios (v 1107) reboot ,and recheck bios to confirm that they are set which they are.
Then when i boot into Windows 10 something strange happens. My clock speeds are set in stone at 1.55GHZ whether on desktop,running
AIDA64 stress test,or Cinebench. Bios overclock : https://valid.x86.fr/v815ak

When i clear cmos boot back in to windows 10 @stock setting with the Ryzen balanced power running i get this : https://valid.x86.fr/h824zv

They only way it seems i can overclock is through Ryzen Master Overclocking software : https://valid.x86.fr/wzflpv

So i'm baffled ,am i missing something somewhere ? Because i rather set this up in the bios ...but everything i do there Windows locks me down at 1.55GHZ

How are you manually overclocking? stock baseclock with x39 multipler or playing with the baseclock a little?? or Custom Pstate?

Just the basic x39 multiplier with manual voltage settings stock base.
Settings stay set in bios, but in Windows they don't stick

Use the High Performance power plan and before changing the settings in the BIOS restore defaults.

I didn't have this problem with my 1700...

3.9Ghz @ 1.325v is very ambitious regardless of your actual problem with an 1700.

Or the RYZEN power plan released by AMD

It comes with the chipset driver
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows+10+-+64

That'd be interesting to know, does High performance actually offer better performance than the plan released by AMD?

the amd power plan fixed the core parking bug that the default balanced plan had so it shouldn't have any performance difference.

I have the exact same problem. I am to the point where Ryzen Master can't even overclock. I even tried the built in wizard to OC in the UEFI and it got me a whopping 93Mhz and then blue screens windows on boot every time. So currently, I have to run my 1700 at stock settings because all manual OCing will do is make me boot into Windows at 1550Mhz. WTF is going on?

My multiplier will get set to 15.50 if I do any OCing in the UEFI. It says it isn't but that's how it is in Windows and benchmarking. Windows itself will report the OC but when I run CPU-Z or another of it's type, it says 1550Mhz. Benchmarking shows performance at 1550Mhz.

I'll try the high performance plan ,and it was stable @ 1.35v (AIDA64) so i lower it as far as i could and anything lower than 1.325 it would crash (stress test)

Aida64 stress test is weak, use Intel Burn Test or Prime95 BETA FMA3 with Small FTT

None of you having the problem have told us what BIOS version you're using. That could be quite important.
Tired of trolls and mods that act like this platform has no problems and it's the users fault. Later.
