If you use this to OC the cores, will they permanently run at the new set speed or turbo up to that speed keeping a stock idle.

That is incorrect. It becomes a user-defined "maximum", not a "fixed" value.
The CPU downclocks anyway when low usage/idle, as long as the power management minimum setting is at 99% or less. If set to minimum 100%, then yes, it never downclocks... but why would anyone do that?

Ive no idea, i am asking as ive never used it, im sure i read in the 3800x post on G3D that you can have either a permanent all cor clock or a variable (stock) one. Ive not used AMD since my 3700SD back in the day so ive been Intel since C2D.

It works just fine, but I did notice a weird behavior. I had my first 3 cores (best OC'ers that actually hit 4.6-4.625Ghz) at 4.5Ghz while the rest were at 4.4Ghz,. When I was playing some games, I noticed that not only did these 3 cores hit 4.5Ghz, another two did so as well. I ain't complaining as I'm happy with what I see, but with the previous Ryzen Master, if you set the core at 4.4Ghz, it'd never go pass that.
Edit - Another thing I'd noticed is that the old Ryzen Master used to have one of my cores spike up even though I was basically surfing the net, and that core would stay at 4Ghz or higher, that behavior is gone now.....and that's a good thing!

Well maybe I can help a bit here as I just upgraded:
- There are two new gauges, one for "CPU Power" and one for "SOC Power" - Shows the exact number of Watts the CPU consumes, beside the PPT indicator
- It is possible now to set the time length of the histogram ( defaults to 60 mins )
- Seems that each core can be overclocked individually to exact frequency (25Mhz granularity), no longer the same value for one CCX
I'm not noticing anything else for now.
