The GPU is the Sapphire Nitro+ Vega 64.

For example, when I perform a benchmark test against Assasins Creed Oddysey on 2k I receive average of 44 fps and when I perform the benchmark test on 1080p I receive 52? I believe this are very low for the GPU & CPU combo?

The question is what should I set my AMD CPU settings to using the AMD Ryzen Master APP?

Also, what is the best AMD Radeon Settings to use aswell?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

What settings for AC Odyssey? Ultra? Given that it's a brutal, PC-murdering monster that only targets 30fps, and:

those numbers would sound about right.

Also AC Odyssey doesn't like AMD GPUs as much as Nvidia ones, despite it being an AMD sponsored title lawls. It's just one of those things.

How about Unigine Valley or 3Dmark Firestrike? If it's mostly just AC Odyssey what you're getting's pretty normal by the looks of it?

IMO the problem lies with the game itself and not your hardware, as your specs are good. As much as I enjoyed AC Odyssey, it is overly demanding in terms of graphics - unoptimised, even. What I found to improve performance significantly was to turn down/off some of the rather ridiculous settings like volumetric clouds. Hardware Unboxed on YouTube has a very thorough video on how much percentage gain in performance can be gained by decreasing certain settings. I have the same GPU as you and was at a pretty stable 1080p/60+ FPS on mostly the highest settings, with a few changes.

If you haven't already, I'd also recommend undervolting & overclocking your card (using Wattman for convenience) to keep temps lower so you can squeeze some extra performance out.
