I do not own a Ryzen but have been using AMD for a long time.

I bought one Ryzen 3 some two years ago for my brother and the temperatures were close to yours while benchmarking.

From the top of my head, if your problem is just with single core performance, it is probably a motherboard configuration issue.

AMD motherboards usually have a configuration to unlock single core frequency. In my 11 year old Asus motherboard it is called "core unlocker".

What it does, when enabled, is to allow the cores to independently increase their frequency (up to the turbo frequency) without increasing for all cores.

It might have happen that, during your benchmark, you probably have that feature disabled (the default) and the CPU thought that it hasn't necessary to increase the frequency of the entire CPU just so that your single task on that single core would run faster.

I suggest you enable that feature for the benchmark only because it can cause (not confirmed) system instability and shorten the life span of the CPU to have it enabled all the time, due to points (location of each core) in the CPU die heating much more than the rest of the CPU.

Alternatively, run more things while running the benchmark so that more cores are busy and the CPU throttles its frequency for all cores.
