Ive noticed that my ryzen 5 7500f is running high frequencies even though pbo and other things are turned off and nothing was running except task manager. I even deleted ryzen master because i think that was causing it. I scrolled many forums and they say its normal, but im still not sure.
While gaming war thunder the cpu use rose up to 100% (and 5ghz) and sometimes fall to 30%ish and back again to 100. I checked youtube and saw a video that shows 5 7500f should be in use about 30-40% percent in the game. im afraid it is bottlenecking my gpu (rtx 3080) and i started to wonder that my cpu and gpu combo is bad.

Your CPU GPU combo is not bad, that CPU can take a faster GPU pretty easily and be fine. The game however that you are playing is just CPU heavy, which yes is a CPU bottleneck where more threads and even a higher clock would help, But thats just one game and you are getting some vary playable fps, so its not a huge issue. Other games however are not as hard on the CPU, but harder on the GPU, Thats normal. War Thunder I do know is kind wonky on some hardware anyway.
Pretty normal for a 6 core 12 thread CPU in this day and age as more and more games are using more and more threads. At least you got an upgrade path though, can throw in a 9800x3d and off to the races!
Idle clocks dont matter, it’s fine
