I just installed an Ryzen 7 5800X since I can't go any newer without upgrading my MoBo as well. I have a couple of questions.
1. The stock speed of this CPU is 3.8GHz and it is now running at over 4GHz as shown in the attached photo. I don't understand why since I haven't overclocked anything. Would there be some kind of setting for a variable speed that I don't know about?
2. Was the Ryzen 7 5800X a good choice or should I have bought the 5700X? I've heard some issues concerning temps although I haven't noticed anything.
3. This really has to do with my RAM sticks. When I purchased my RAM I specifically ordered 3200 sticks thinking that they would run at that speed. I've had 3 different CPU's in this rig and they continue to run at 2133. Why wouldn't they run at the speed that they are capable of hitting without the need for changing that in the BIOS?
Thanks for the help!
