What can be done about it?
I have a tweaked BIOS, is there anything there that could cause it to be like it is?
It was the PSS support in the BIOS, it was disabled.

analyzing CPU 8:
driver: amd-pstate-epp
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 8
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 8
maximum transition latency: Cannot determine or is not supported.
hardware limits: 550 MHz - 4.55 GHz
available cpufreq governors: performance powersave
current policy: frequency should be within 1.75 GHz and 4.55 GHz.
The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
within this range.

AMD PSTATE Highest Performance: 191. Maximum Frequency: 4.55 GHz.
AMD PSTATE Nominal Performance: 124. Nominal Frequency: 3.40 GHz.
AMD PSTATE Lowest Non-linear Performance: 64. Lowest Non-linear Frequency: 1.75 GHz.
AMD PSTATE Lowest Performance: 21. Lowest Frequency: 550 MHz.
It doesnt seem to have all the options, like maximum transition latency, but it should be enough.
