Overclock not working with Clover bootloader

Disclaimer: While this is technically related to hackintoshing, it is not violating the Community Standards as I am not asking for information on how to do it or even discussing the hackintosh part of the issue.

 

Okay now that that's out of the way, I have my Ryzen 5 1600 OC'd to 3.8GHz and it says in the BIOS that it's running at that speed. But as soon as I boot to MacOS or Windows (using clover bootloader) it runs at only stock clocks. Is there a way I can get my OC back?

Clover can't reset overclocks. It either that your not overclocking properly or that the operating systems can't see the overlock. 

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

I restored an OC profile I saved earlier, for some reason that worked even though I didn't change anything.

Ace. I am glad you got it working. Clover is just a thing to make OS X think it's a mac. It can't touch the BIOS or UEFI.
