Solution
"Ryzen7 1700, 8-Core/16 Threads UNLOCKED, Max Freq 3.7GHz, 20MB Cache Socket AM4 65W, with Wraith Spire cooler"Is that a 1700? Because if so why's it at 3ghz and not 3.2?
yes I have it clocked down a bit to not stress the board... only running stock cooler
I will run at this level for a while then may add water or another 8g ram stick because I notice my rendor times in Dimension have dropped and that is nice because all my games run well so OC isn't high on my to do list

I'm still in the process of tweaking but so far:

Ross can you find the custompc version of realbench does a more thorough bench of the system.

Interesting blog regarding the latest AGESA 1.0.0.6. Bios updates and what they mean in terms of tweakability:
Gaming: Memory OC Showdown: Frequency vs. Memor... | CommunityOur data points indicate that Geardown Mode should be disabled for gaming if you can achieve your desired memory overclock with a 1T command rate. The opposite holds true if 1T CR proves too aggressive to reach your desired clockspeed--leaving Geardown Mode enabled may get you there. Finally, when it comes to GDM vs. 2T CR (not shown), specific memory throughput testing should be conducted as the balance of power will come down to your other memory timings.

I tried disabling the Geardown module as I can run a command rate of 1 easily.. WooHoo blue screen city baby and they came thick and fast too plus something i've never seen before it even blue screen in the bios!
As you can imagine that was quickly enabled again although not everyone may have the same experience. This is all a learning curve and it depends on what kit your using as well as a myriad of other things.
This I can do and as of yet I can't really tell if it helps or not.. Mind you 2% is quite hard to find when using a 980Ti

BankGroupSwap (BGS) is a new memory mapping option in AGESA 1.0.0.6 that alters how applications get assigned to physical locations within the memory modules; the goal of this knob is to optimize how memory requests are executed after taking DRAM architecture and your memory timings into account. The theory goes that toggling this setting can shift the balance of performance in favor of either games or synthetic apps.

The screenshot appears to be mushed. No way to resize the window. Apparently this software does not like certain screen resolutions. But nonetheless.
