So I updated my board (B850M-X WiFi) to 3.20 beta, and boom, the default FCLK went down from 2GHz to 1.75GHz, and UCLK went into 1:2 mode (1400MHz for 5600MT/s RAM).

I was able to get my 2GHz FCLK and 1:1 UCLK (2800MHz) back by forcing them in the BIOS, but what in the world? Anybody doing any quals on these release?

Anyone else notice this?
