Why is my Ryzen 2600 boosting itself to 4.8ghz?

Hi everyone.

Just built a new PC yesterday with an R5 2600 and ASUS Prime x470 Pro motherboard. I am having problems with my CPU frequency as it keeps spiking up to 4+ Ghz (it hit 5ghz yesterday!) This is really annoying me as I want control over my cpu frequency, and even when overclocking and setting a frequency, it still goes over it. I have updated BIOS to latest version, tried disabling core performance boost but nothing has worked. I am also using HWMonitor to view the frequency. My CPU's voltage doesn't seem to spike up with it, however. Weird.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Does Ryzen Master show the same clock speeds HWMon does?
