Ryzen not Boosting?

I just got a Ryzen 7 1700. Great Cpu. Only problem is, even under full load, it will not boost to its maximum 3.7 ghz speed. It boosts up to about 3.2 and stops. I'm running after market cooling and it runs quite cool, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Please Help

Just becas it has a trubo boost of 3.7GHz that dosnt mean its gone turbo all cores to 3.7 just 1 2

Just manually overclock it, don't go over 1.35V for daily use, should be able to do 3800mhz all core easily

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I don't know where they got that information, but it's wrong, incomplete, and just confusing as hell.

 

A Ryzen 7 1700 has a base clock of 3GHz. Precision Boost will automatically overclock all cores to 3.2GHz. If temperatures are within safe ranges, it will then boost one or two coolest cores to 3.7GHz with XFR taking those same one or two cores an additional 50MHz to 3.75GHz. It'll cycle between the coolest cores. However, in a full load situation requiring all cores, the most you'll see is 3.2GHz.

AHA well i'm kind correct as in that 2 cores only hit 3.7 well if its a full cpu load than al cores wil turbo up to 3.2GHz. I always that it was the same is intel's turbo boost
