I'm building a homelab which will run Proxmox. It will have a couple of VMs: TrueNAS and a plain Linux host with some Docker containers including a media server. I plan to use an i5-12400 for this for its QSV capability but I'm having issues understanding PCIe lanes and potential expansion for...

Yeah, I've been running my setup for about 3 years now but for some reason recently just seems like my temps are higher. Idle temps are around 55-60C which seems a little on the high side but bear in mind I also have my fans set to 0 RPM until real load kicks in. I think maybe I need to change...

Thank you, this does help. So, if I change the maximum processor state to 1% then the CPU runs cool, this is what I want. Is there a program or something that will watch the CPU load and if under a certain amount then it reduces the clock speed as much as possible (i.e. reduces maximum processor...

But surely when there is no CPU load then the CPU clock should drop?

So, I've enabled PBO in BIOS and uninstalled Ryzen Master. What I've figured out is that under the AMD Ryzen Balanced power plan, setting the maximum processor state under processor power management to 99% stops PBO. The CPU always runs at 3.6GHz. Setting the maximum processor state to 100%...

Why is my Ryzen 5 3600 boosting with PBO off in the BIOS? View: https://imgur.com/a/Br02Mi8 Ryzen Master is set to Default too.
