CPU always at 3.93ghz

[AzrealNoctis]

Is something up with my CPU? It's a ryzen 5 3600 and it seems to always be at 3.93ghz, not sure if it's supposed to be that way.

Lots of variables there..... 

Do you mean at idle, load, partial load?

Is the system in performance mode?

The Cpu manually (static) overclock? 

Are you tweaking PBO overclock? 

It this frequency not fast enough?

Do you have a list of system specs?

And how can we help?

 

Sry for all my dumb questions. I have no idea what's going on yet lol.

It's like that literally at all times, I'm just wondering that since I overclocked it, is it meant to stay at that specific speed? It's paired with a gtx 1660 super overclocked from Asus.

Right well.... It sounds like my 3rd question applies to the situation.

 

If manually setting the multiplier, this turns off the SenseMi auto overclocking functionality. 

So yes pins the clocks.

 

 

I'm assuming you set a 40x multi judging by the 3.93ghz, that is normal while the BCLK will throttle at time, sometimes a lot if cpu v-core is a tad too low.

Are you getting the reading from task manager, and are you using the Ryzen Balanced power plan?

Yes on both accounts, don't worry now, I figured out why it was doing what it was.

Any reason why you set it at that specific clock speed? Could you not go higher?
