Is this 5950x running correctly?

[A&P211]

What is the score now compared to last one? (CPU-Z)
Time to unleash more power maybe?
56°C, ~4.1GHz and 142W shows potential...
What was the Power Reporting Deviation during the run of this last screenshot?

The power was 115w. I didnt catch the last score. This desktop is going to the wife for her projects.

Now turn on PBO and let it flex

The wife needs more stability than overclocking speed. I'll see if I can get it a few more mhz faster.

OP is running CPU-Z benchmark to check power, he won't match the extreme power readings from OCCT or anything like that. There's not much to play around with, just enable PBO and you should be set.

That being said OP's fabric clock is running at 1067 so you're running DDR at 2133 MT/s which means you have XMP disabled.

Edit.
Oh yeah, second screen shows proper setting:

PBO on is still stable. It's when you start messing with CO and all that does it get tricky. I know this because I have a 5950x running 24/7 right next to me.

Where does the 115W comes from?
In order for the power to be 115W while PPT reports 142Wthen PowerReportingDeviation should be at 123% right?

I would suggest to enable PBO to advanced mode, set manually the limits of PPT, TDC, EDC and also get access to curve optimizer for some V/F undervolting. There is also the option of increasing max boost up to +200MHz with steps of 25MHz.

It all depends if the system is needed for high single thread frequency or high multi thread frequency. You can have the best for one or the other, or the middle ground for both.

If you’re interested in such a tuning let us know.

If you just enable PBO on auto mode and let the board set the limits it will be practically unlimited.
Then the CPU will self regulate internally to preserve silicon health. This way power can reach very high limits (200+W) if temperature and current allows. Temperature alone does not mean much if you left out current (Amps).
To me it’s not very efficient if you left everything completely free like “PBO Enabled” does. Current also can reach too high values for my taste (EDC= or greater than 200A).
