I'm clocking upwards of 8 GHz without any modifications?
```
Vendor ID: AuthenticAMD
Model name: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 7960X 24-Cores
CPU family: 25
Model: 24
Thread(s) per core: 2
Core(s) per socket: 24
Socket(s): 1
Stepping: 1
Frequency boost: enabled
CPU(s) scaling MHz: 40%
CPU max MHz: 8229.0000
CPU min MHz: 545.0000
BogoMIPS: 8399.71
```

Power consumption doesn't support the 8GHz but the CPU frequency does

2.2 GHz is the maximum clock speed that I set via /sys/bus/cpu/devices/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq to see if it made a difference so I'm not exactly sure why that isn't being respected either.

Kutoru, I guess if I knew something about Linux I might know what all the numbers mean. Looks like a Linux code problem. If you can run Windows please post a screenshot of Ryzen Master (RM). Thanks, John.

The first block is CPU specifications, really the only thing I want to pull out from that is that it says it can do 8 GHz which is a lie unless its overclocking by default.

```

CPU max MHz: 8229.0000
CPU min MHz: 545.0000
BogoMIPS: 8399.71

```

The second block is a CPU thread / CPU frequency table taken using `lscpu -e`, you can see several reaching above 5 GHz (regardless of the fact that I've capped it at 2.2GHz, it is still above the stock 5.3 GHz cap, for ex.)

This isn't a Linux problem, another machine with 7965WX has the correct output.
