the EDC; PPT and TDC are power limits. That meant that your cpu was maxing out the EDC power limit. in precision boost overdrive you can set the limit higher manually. if it exceeds the limit your cpu might not boost to higher frequenzy's.

go to profile 1

- in control mode select precision boost overdrive

- hover your cursor over EDC, PPT and TDC and see the "max currect"

- type the max current in

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.
