Just updated ryzen master and noticed this, the fact it's displaying in red has me wondering. This normal or only occurs on certain power modes?

Same for me, I was able to get higher boosting by changing some Bios settings I found here: https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?101617-Crosshair-VII-Hero-Essential-Info-Thread.

The normal power limits for 2700X is 141W PPT (Package power limit), 95A TDC (Mobo current limit), and 140A EDC (Some other, more critical, current limit??? Haven't figured it out).
Turning on Precision Boost Overdrive cranks those to "the max": PPT gets uncapped to 1000W, TDC to 114A, and EDC to 168A.
Supposedly mobo makers can provide tuned values for TDC and EDC in the future, i.e. the Gigabyte X470 Gaming 7 WiFi probably can provide more current than the default PBO limits.
You don't need to worry about Ryzen much unless you're letting it get too hot or are pumping too much voltage.
