Hi, currently have a few servers from hetzner but they power restrict
there servers. The 7950x3d server only boosts to 4.5ghz MAX with a max
of 80w to the cpu. Same with there other servers.
I am looking for a host that hosts servers that actually turbo to max
turbo freq's.
Thanks.

Atleast in the EU, providers of large server farma (eg, hosters) are
required by EU law to implement power savings. See https://eur-
lex.europa.eu/legal-
content/EN/TXT/?qid=1553786820621&uri=CELEX%3A32019R0424 for the
details.

The way around this (in the EU) is to colocate yourself, or find a
hoster that does not fall under EU juristiction.

And Hetzner charges €0.5355/kWh for colocation in Nuremberg :)

because its not efficient to run those systems at high power - they
are much more efficient. You basically can get like 80-90% of
computational power with basically half the power draw, and power is
everything in the datacenter setting.
