*AMD has said that they are releasing a new BIOS to address the issues here on Sept 10th. Now we are waiting "2-3 weeks" for MB vendors to release new BIOS for their boards. You are welcome to post your results from your testing as we wait.

Questions/Statements:
Why this forum?
There are many people who like many forums who have many different MB's. Everyone involved has an AMD CPU so this is the most common forums between users.
Well, if you (did you try to) adjust (overclock) X, Y, Z then it should work. (?)
Post a pic of your 3900x CPU max boost at 4.6 with the adjustment you advise.
Why these test?
There are common test that should test your MAX Boost. If you have another that will, then post it with a pic of your results. We want to duplicate your results.
Why Ryzen Master and not HWiNFO?
There seems to be a difference in reporting between Ryzen Master and HWiNFO. Ryzen Master is a first party software where as HWiNFO is a third party. I don't know which is accurately reporting so it is safer to go with first party until it is shown which is incorrect.
The images are small and hard to read.
Open the images in a "new tab" and you can view them at full size. If it's still too small, use "save image as" and view them in your picture viewer. If you just click on them they will pop up in a small window.
Example:
Cannot get any core to Boost to 4.6 on any setting. ALL set with Ryzen Master. MB: Asus Prime x570 Pro BIOS: ver 1005, RAM: G.SKill 3200c14. Highest MAX Boost: 4.350
Lastly, thank you to all who post results.
