Hi, I have a Z690 taichi, newest bios (15.01) for my 13900K
i only enable xmp in bios, all defualt,
when running cinebench r23 test, My i9 pulse 13900k only 4.8 ghz p core and consum 230w, while i see people usually hit 5.8ghz pcore with 300w power consum, Do I have to tweak anything in the bios to make the cpu run as good as it was born to run?

I think it is best to use the support form, and check the spam folder for replies

Every CPU is different, and it depends also on the powersupply and CPU/VRM cooling.
When Voltage Regulator Modules (VRM's) that handle the power to the CPU, overheat, they protect themselves, by throttling the CPU.
When the OS is active, the OS takes control over all the hardware, and to manage the hardware properly, you should always install the chipset drivers, after the OS installation
