Ryzen 2700x all core OC vs pbo Vs auto

All of my ASUS board so far average 1.4 - 1.5v on Average stock even with a up to date bios.
My B450-F that I had would hit 1.55v when I originally got it and a update brought it down to 1.5, but still in the 1.4 - 1.5v range.
My stock x470-i with the latest update is sitting at 1.47v at currently.
Anyways if the 2700x is similar to a 3600 in terms of overclocking, 4.1 @ 1.32 - 1.35v is what I typically averaged for a full stressed load, 1.4v+ is way to much.
In terms of overclock vs stock.
locking it at 4.1 will gain you multicore performance but cost you in single core performance, so really it depends on the application / game, you have to think your going to lose that single core boost frequency. Really though 4.1 to 4.3 isn't much of a loss.
But then again you will also be locked at the frequency you set and not have to rely on your CPU to boost up to certain frequencies when needed.
Best thing to do is benchmark everything at stock that you would normally use then set your overclock and see how it performs vs stock. In my use case, I benefit more from all cores being locked at 4.1, anything I lost in single core boost frequencies is negligible to me. I was also able to lower my temps quite a bit compared to stock due to the drop in voltage.
