Assuming you're working with Windows OS, what power plan are you working with? If it's on Balanced, set it to High Performance and see if that helps bring your clocks up.

As for your build, how are you cooling the processor and what sort of temps are you looking at?

I'm using the ryzen High performance power plan
The cooling I'm working with is the noctua dh15 idle 45 degrees
Haven't tested under heavy load yet

How are you checking and measuring speed? If you open the Windows Task Manager, what speed does that indicate?
