Clock speed fluctuates after OC

[Leonitus454]

According to HW Monitor, my clock speed sits at around 3873MHz after I OCed it to 3.9Ghz. How to I make the speed closer to 3.9GHz constantly. Intel seems to stay pretty close. On my old FX-8370 I was able to change a setting in BIOS that would solve the problem mostly. Is it still possible to do on Ryzen?

Does it matter?

To me, YES.

I have to wonder what this obsession with overclocking multi-core, multi-gigahertz systems are. I fully understood it in the days of the 300Mhz Celerons, but you can't tell me you can see the difference between 3.873 Ghz and 3.9.

Lemme see if I got this right.  You oc'd your cpu to 3900Hz but are actually running at 3873Hz according to HWMonitor.  The difference being 27Hz.  You can actually tell the difference in function of 27Hz?  Because if you can, wow, I hope that you are working for HP or Dell in their product design department because that is really tight.

OC it to 3.927 then maybe it will go down to where you want it?

 

 

 

NOTE: I have never overclocked anything

You guys, suck. LOL I just want the numbers to look nice. guess not. I guess I'll just live with 3.97GHz instead.

TBH man I understand you since 27x8 is almost 200mhz overall and can impact benchmarks..
