Just put together a new build and ive noticed that my 5950x is boosting for no reason, just idling watching youtube/twitch its boosting itself to 4.5-4.9ghz and around 1.4 volts. cpu temps when idle are in the high 40's but get lower when i actually put the cpu to use its so weird. Ive looked into this problem and it seems some people fixed it by uninstalling icloud (never had it installed) disabling "cool and quiet" in the bios or setting it from auto to enabled, ive tried both and no luck so far. Ive updated the mobo bios and the chipset drivers to the latest versions
