CPU optimize tuning

AMD Ryzen 7950X

Go to BIOS and turn on overclocking and change Advanced -> AMD Overclocking -> AMD Overclocking -> Precision Boost Overdrive from auto to advance. Then in Curve Optimizer select all cores and change sign from positive to negative. Start testing with a magnitude of 30 and if it is not stable go down.

E.g. for testing CPU:

sysbench --threads="$(nproc)" cpu run --cpu-max-prime=2000000000

Additionally, you can change Platform Thermal Throttle Ctrl to manual and set power limit to 85W. I didn't apply this.
