Also, out of curiosity Zach, what type of RAM do you use? Is it listed within the QVL for this board?

I have Team Vulcan 2666, which is not on the QVL last I checked. That being said, I've gotten it to run at the rated speeds and got the timings down to CL14 at a mere 1.275 volts. In my attempts to OC, I reset every thing back to default so I don't think it'd be impacting the OC issue.

How did your PState OC results fare?

No dice. I'm giving up until another update rolls around and leaving the MoBo change as an option down the road..

Update: Just found this little nugget

I just saw it as well, I think I might as well wait then.

Just chiming in that I have the same problem. I can't OC my 1600 beyond 3.7Ghz in the bios. I am getting a seemingly stable OC using Ryzen Master @ 3.9Ghz at 1.425 volts, but  I can't even get 3.8Ghz to post when OCing in the bios and setting the volts to 1.425 and I have to reset the CMOS.

For now, I'm just using Ryzen Master to OC and will hope an updated bios will fix the issue.

I hope you mean 1.325 volts otherwise that chip will be fried..

Also is there a way to submit a bug to these guys @ forum mods?? Perhaps this can spur along a fix because 3 people with different chips on the same board rules out a CPU issue.

Update: I sent something to tech support with a link to this thread. See if that spurs along a bug fix

AFAIK anything over 1.45v 24/7 will result in degradation to your Ryzen chip, and anything below that should be fine. But I myself wouldn't go above 1.4v because the extra heat and power consumption only nets me an extra 100Mhz increase, so it's not worth it.

I believe anything above 1.45 is the "danger zone". My chip stays below 75 degrees when running prime95 and doesn't break 60 degrees when running PUBG. 

If I lose a year or two out of the lifespan of my chip, I won't mind, especially since I'll probably be upgrading to the next Ryzen chips next year if the IPC is better.
