[SOLVED] Ryzen 5 3400g with prime a320m-k

So i have a strange question i paired this 2 components and the question is the processor normal clock is 3.7 with a boost of 4.2 but i only get a 3.8 so is it because of the motherboard or i need to enable something in bios. And the motherboard doesnt support ryzen 3000 series without the bios .

latest bios? what the apu temp? what the make and model of the psu?

4.2Ghz is only a promised single-core boost, AFAIK. Although all-core is possible.
There are many factors that go into Ryzen's boost algorithm - APU temps, BIOS revisions etc... and I believe power delivery plays a part too.

CPU temp is around 45 C 55 C full load its not thermalthrotteling. The psu is 600W LC600H-12 .

I didn't say it was throttling? But the boost algorithm takes temperature into considering (among other aspects). Just because you're not throttling doesn't mean they're sufficient headroom to boost, again, based on AMDs algorithm.

Have you enabled "high performance" power plan in Windows?

Yes maybe its because mobo is only supporting it with the bios update? And one more question can i oc or i need to switch mobo to do that ?

A320 does not support overclocking, no.

Ok thanks a lot!

That PSU is terrible quality.

Really my friend had it like 4 years and he says its doing its job.Thats why i bought it.
