Windows 10: Maximum Processor Frequency in Power Options not Working Properly

Hi as described here I turned on maximum processor frequency in power options in Windows and set the max to 4 GHz; my CPU maxes out at ~4.8 GHz. If I resume from standby with the option enabled my CPU will throttle properly for a half minute or so then it will drop down from the specified frequency of 4 GHz to 1.7 GHz. If I turn the option on while Windows is running it will drop down to 1.7 GHz right away. I have updated the BIOS to the latest non-beta and am running a fairly frequent AMD chipset driver. I am using a Gigabyte X570 Aorus Ultra with a 5900X CPU. Any ideas what might be wrong an

Option to limit maximum processor speed is no longer accessible

iigguhhoo,

Depending on which power option you want to set, the tutorials below can help show you how to add Maximum processor frequency and Maximum processor state back to Power Options if needed.

Windows 10 - Maximum Processor Frequency

I am in the Advanced Processor Power menu and it asks me to set the Maximum Processor Power Frequency in MHZ percentages. How do I determine the setting? I did find a reply that said to divide the MHZ at which the processor is running by GHZ of my processor.
Is this a good formula and if so, how do I find the MHZ at which my processor is running? Belarc Advisor does not provide it. Thank you.
