Hi. i have 2600x clocked to 4050mhz. i used 1.3125V. When i am playing games.( 44 degree celcius cpu) i get random core 1 spike to 100%. My fps drops a little for like 2-3 seconds and after in like 5-10 sec evrything is going back. Mention: temps don't modify and only cpu1 is spiking 100%, rest are intact. i switched 1.325V since i though it;s a voltage problem (gotta test it out).
 
CSGO and Guild Wars 2 aren't definitely "all of them" as those 2 specific games only use a maximum of 3 threads with GW2 being known to push one thread harder than the others, while your CPU has its maximum performance split in 12 threads. Maybe some system or other programs are using the Core 1 and then draining your games performance. You can check the CPU usage with the task manager in the desktop to see if this way you can notice if this core is already being used for other stuff.

Anyways, the task manager allows you to set manually the core affinity for the programs, so you can just select other threads for this two games. You should be able to pick virtual cores (or threads) 0 to 11, so you can make them run in cores 6, 8 and 10 to split the load in different physical cores and free the first cores just in case they are being used by other tasks.
 
from what i saw on internet. 1.374v at 4100 so 4050 should work fine with 1.35v stable. If this doesn;t solve the problem, idk what could spike my cpu1 so much and only in games. for ex in AC origins i don;t remember to have a spike. Btw all cores are unparked so apps/games benefits from all threads
 
used aida64 extreme for test. i use ryzen master for temps. i use 2600x with deepcool maelstrom 120t combine with noctua nf-f12 3000pwm custom fan set at 2250 rot/min. it;s like 5.4mm h20 and 130cfm. thermalpaste is arctic silver 5. with core unlocked my cpu stay in csgo at 41 degree 4150-4100 and arounr 1.4v and 1.375 and peeked max at 1.4375.used hwinfo64 to search this. i also use fps_max 300 even if cpu can do 400fps just to give him space....

UPDATE: It's not from voltage since i unlocked all cores and let voltage auto. it did same thing cpu 1 100% for 10-15 sec with fps dorp. rest cores normal usage and no temp or slow increased but 1-2-3 celcius
