Ryzen 7 1700 turbo issues with and without applications

[spot-]

Hello, so I have this very odd issue that I have still yet to find anything somewhat similar. My specs are ryzen 7 1700 (not overclocked), gtx 1080, and 2666mhz ram 16gb. The issue I’m almost certain is not hardware related but rather some bios setting or other setting(I have a ASRock x370 Fatality K4 motherboard). The temps are fine and not the issue. However, I’ve noticed while running a PC application (discord) my base clock stays at 3.0ghz and my turbo is 3.15ghz and my cpu is performing way under the percentile it is supposed to be (34). But without discord my base clock is once again 3.0ghz but the turbo is 3.25ghz and my cpu is performing significantly better (52). I have tried uninstalling discord as well as many other techniques. One of the techniques was overclocking from 3000 to 3150, but the most unexplainable issue happened, my cpu base clock obviously increased to 3.15 but the turbo was now 3.10 and my cpu was massively underperforming, even though I moved the base clock higher. I changed it to 3.20ghz and my tested again, my turbo was now 3.05ghz and was underperforming even more. I tried putting my speed to 2.90 under the normal base clock, no fix. Just slightly performed worse than with 3.00ghz. If someone can help me this would help drastically. I am willing to do anything at this point.

At stock settings, the 1700 is going to attempt to stay at 65 watts TDP, and, the more applications/cores open, the lower the clock speed across most cores.

Try simply setting your core multipliers manually to desired 3.4 -3.7 GHz, or , higher if your cooling solution will support slightly higher core voltage as well...(Higher multipliers to achieve near 3.9 GHz will require higher core voltages and possibly better cooling...
