Cpufreq is no longer accurate for recent AMD machines with boost clock rates. Here's a Netdata plugin and setup instructions to allow querying turbostat for CPU frequency, this accurately reports boost clocks on a machine with radeon.bapm active.
This includes the HP T730, the DFI DT122-BE and pretty much any AMD chip post 2012-2013 (or thereabouts, someone correct me here) that relies on radeon.bapm for power management and frequency scaling.
Edit: We don't need to git clone and then patch, installing just the turbostat plugin is enough. See next post.
