That's perfectly normal and how Ryzen works. It boosts single cores aggressively to max clocks to finish off transient processes quickly and return to idle.

Modern Windows10 systems are never idle. There's hundreds of threads waiting to do something, dozens of active processes in the background. It might start indexing files on the drive a few moments after you stop moving the mouse or typing, for instance, or checking for updates and downloading them or any of dozens of other housekeeping actions.
