When I had my 12700kf, rog strix z690 gaming f pc buit about 5 months ago, it came with bios 1403 from memory. This version allowed me to manually overclock the pc, but due to being inexperienced, I tinkered a little bit, then got scared and undid as many of the changes as possible. Moving forwards, I eventually upgraded my bios's to the latest build of 2004.
since then, I've tried to manually overclock the cpu, but even when manual option is chosen and "remove all limits" are applied, when I try to change the power core or efficient core ratios, it is stuck on auto, effectively rendering a manual overclock impossible.
I've removed Armoury Crate if that makes any difference, thought it might be worth mentioning.
here are some screenshots of what I'm talking about, and of my pc built if it helps:
