Ryzen 1700X maximum speed

[yuvalco]

Hi all , My specs are

CPU : Ryzen 1700X

Motherboard: AB350 - Gaming 3

 

From my understanding 1700X base clock is 3.4 Ghz and it can go up to a maximum of 3.8 with boost and up to 3.9 +- with XFR , 

but at windows Task manger it says maximum speed 3.4 ,

and never goes behind that , Cpu z also says 3.4 , Ryzen Master says 3.5.

should i enable some features at the bios? 

what should i do to reach 3.4 - 3.8 ? (Benchmarks and games or any other demanding software do not change the clocks speed higher than 3.4)

You need to actually go into your BIOS and manually OC the chip.

3.8 Ghz only applies to the 2 fastest cores. So if you played a game only 2 cores would run at that speed

All turbo core speed is about 3.6 Ghz

If you want all cores to be the same speed you'll have to manually oc the cpu.
