5950x seemingly not boosting?

Hey, recently I posted about an unstable OC on my 5950x (https://linustechtips.com/topic/1427090-weird-behavior-with-5950x-overclock/), after which I cleared the AutoOC that AI Suite put in and just switched on PBO and +200 on Max CPU Boost Override in the BIOS. 

 

However, recently I noticed that the clock speeds of all the cores seem to be linked to each other and there's no longer core clock independence. All of the cores have exactly the same clock speed, which wasn't the case previously (and I don't believe should be happening):

Even single-core loads like doing single-core on Cinebench R23 also doesn't seem to have any effect on any one core by itself. It just seems that there isn't any boosting at all, despite PBO being on. 

 

Also, is all-core supposed to be only 3.6 GHz at full load? Shouldn't it be able to all-core boost to like 4.4 GHz? For reference I'm hitting it with an all-core load in the screenshot above, and temps are also only at 65 C, so it can't be thermal throttling. Thanks for the help in advance. 

 

System specs:

- 5950x

- 3090 FE

- Crosshair VIII Hero

- 4x8gb TridentZ Neo RGB 4000 MHz CL16 (clocked at 3733 right now)

- Kraken Z73
