stress testing CPU cores sometimes can't hit its expected boost clocks due to a stock cooler, although that is what I assume and I will probably leave the explanation by professionals

The advertised boost clock applies to single-threaded workloads, therefore the all-core boost will be lower.

As told on the AMD website:

Quote

Max boost for AMD Ryzen processors is the maximum frequency achievable by a single core on the processor running a bursty single-threaded workload.

 

Around 3.4Ghz on all cores is the normal boost speed
