What I've read is that overclocking on Zen usually makes single thread performance worse, because stock can boost to very high frequencies when only a few cores are lit up, while "OC mode" uses the same fixed clock for all the cores all the time, which is harder to get stable. In order to have a secular improvement, you have to go through the "Precision Boost Overdrive" menu to uncap the power limits and undervolt the voltage-frequency curve.
Can't say for sure though, because I don't have any chips that new.
