@Drawbar I have no idea how to do that, what should I type into my search (Cortana thing) to find it

Just search "power plan" and "choose a power plan" comes up, the settings are there.

 

If you just built, search for "windows update" and check for updates, let them install.

Did you check the temps with ryzen master? what's the full PC hardware list?

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 built a 2600x system a little while back on a x470 mobo, had lots a wierd things going on until I got everything updated, latest bios, etc...

 

Now with the system idling and the Ryzen Balanced power plan selected it sits at 4.2 ghz, if i change it to power saver it drops down to about 2.1 ghz.

 

That's strange to me, but the way it's supposed to work.

 

If Ryzen can stay cool, it stays running fast. Mine is only at 40C idling at 4.2 ghz and that's totally stock, no overclock.

If you don't have Ryzen master you can grab this: https://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/

 

You can use that to check your cpu temps and clock speed easily.  Your cpu should be below 45C at idle or with little load. If it's over 60C at idle you got a problem.

 

Run windows update and let it do it's thing. You can find it by searching.

 

Go to your mother board manufacturers website and download all the latest drivers for your board and install.

 

Just doing those should get things straightened out.

Just google it and download it, show accurate temps/speeds for Ryzen.

Try turning off "AMD cool n quiet" in the BIOS if it's an option somewhere.

also make a Linux USB of Ubuntu or something using Rufus after downloading the ISO and see if it runs fine with your hard drive/ssd unplugged

Anti-Virus software is generally worthless
