"This proves that the bottleneck in Zen 2 isn't frequency, but rather the memory subsystem.\n\n\nI saw Hardwarenumb3rs mention this in twitter a few days back that 5Ghz improved min-fps but average almost didn't change.\n\nAnother way to put it: It seems the latency was optimized for a very specific frequency range. Zen 2's memory subsystem wasn't planned to work at frequencies higher than Zen 2 was designed for."
