Question 2700X Ryzen Master/PBO & RAM questions

[dstln]

Hi,

Just a couple questions. I picked up a 2700x with an ASRock X570 Pro4.

First, setting the motherboard's PBO to "Enabled" doesn't seem to allow me to edit anything in Ryzen Master while in Windows, the function is still greyed out and nothing I've tried has impacted that. Any thoughts?

Also, not the end of the world, but I also haven't been able to POST with 3200 ram set to the XMP 3200 speeds, I've had to lower to 2933 (as guaranteed by the processor). Is this common? Seems like most people can typically run the speeds higher.

Thanks!

I suppose I have another question as well. Like most people, my 2700x seems to be limited during all loads by the "EDC" which is set to 140A as default. It can be unlocked up to 200A on my motherboard for more precision boost headroom, are there any potential downsides to doing so, or anything in particular I should keep my eye on?
