i installed a new CPU into my pc after previously having a 1500x now a ryzen 1700x, i had issues with the last one being capped at 3.16 and in the new one in also having issues with the ghz being capped. the GHz is capped between 2 to 2.2 GHz (roughly) and im not sure wheater thats the reason that i dont get high frames with even a good PC. it doesn't have thermal paste at the moment however it had been ordered is that the issue or is it something else that i have to do to the PC?the base ghz for this gpu should be 3.8 and overclocked i think 4.1.
