Ryzen 9 3900x not going above base clock

[doggg]

Hey everyone, first time posting here.

As stated in the title my R9 3900x will not boost above its base clock without resetting ryzen master, i have an MSI gaming pro carbon wifi and cooling (and power - 850w EVGA G3) is certainly sufficient (i have tested through ryzen master, more details under)

 

Essentially, to get the cpu to go above 3.8ghz, i need to boot ryzen master every single time i turn on my PC and manually reset it to "default" settings which will then set the cap to 4.6GHz. I cant seem to find anyone else with the same issue but if anyone knows any possible fixes i would be more than happy

you cannot set permanent overclocks in ryzen master you have to do it in your BIOS. I learned that the hard way because i thought my computer was broken

Hiya, yeah i understand that. My issue was my cpu not even boosting (it was stuck at 3.8GHz which is the cpu base clock) but i managed to fix it by clearing the CMOS. Hopefully if anyone else experiences this issue they'll be able to fix it now

so you could not change the frequency in the BIOS?

B450, X470 or X570? MSI make a Pro Carbon on every chipset.

it appears to not be working again. I can change it in BIOS it just had no effect in windows.

Right. I think it's fixed now. Hopefully. It seemed "Ryzen Master SDK" kept reinstalling itself on my system and limiting my clock speed (for whatever reason) so i nuked it into oblivion and deleted every file associated with it and it uh... worked? Reset and it hasn't installed itself again and my clock is boosting, so fingers crossed it doesn't break again.
