6 boots in a row I'm getting this

Mmmm it’s highly unlikely. The cold bug doesn’t exist anymore really.

Lol -10C … that’s pretty damn balmy compared to the mountainous Western US… it was -18C the other week on all hallows Eve.

You assume wrong. My ambient temperature when I’m out is the same as the outside, because nothing is heating the room up.
When I get home after work I turn the PC on, the heater on and then it gets warmer. In general I live in very cold environment during the winter.

I just got home and this time it froze up on the windows screen…


God damn it stupid computer, what do you want from me?
Second boot and I’m in…

I missed the past something odd posts. But have you done a fresh install of Windows? Did you ever tie it down to a motherboard problem? If so maybe a reflash of the BIOS. Is there a new BIOS version?

No.

No, but that or the CPU is my best guess…

I dare not… If this thing freezes during before or after a flash of BIOS I am out of motherboards.

That is true. What was I thinking?

bump the voltage to your ram.

1.375v

It’s 1,2 for 4x4GB 2666…

go for 1.35 then

I may as well do that… Mkay, the next test is tomorrow…

Good catch for the dram voltage 1.2V might be a bit low.

@PhaseLockedLoop i don’t really think that Soc voltage should really have to be higher then 1.10V with S-llc level3 does it?
Asus does not recommend to go higher then 1.20V.
Although AMD themselfs don´t specify a max save Soc voltage i believe?.

I have a strange problem with my NVME drive where if my CPU runs too hard/gets too hot, or if the power goes out, I usually have to unplug the NVME drive and plug it back in for the MOBO to see it again

Did you have the hard drive plugged in when you installed Windows

It likes to throw bits bootloader thingies on a separate drive from the one you selected to install on

Which can be bad

Well, it doesn’t even want to boot now…
Also I couldn’t find LLC…

I must go to work now… When I get home I’ll open it and clear CMOS…

Then I would probably set it at 1.2V to grab stability first.

People should be using offsets to make voltage changes so they do not tank the boost clocks.

I would change one thing at a time just in case things aren’t stable.

Rereading your post. I think you might have a bad power supply unit man.

Don’t bother with LLC settings if you don’t know what you are doing. @Adubs and I came to a consensus it’s not worth risking your board or CPU over. Go test a different power supply

@MisteryAngel we need to amend advice to match the new platforms. Namely I’m still on ryzen first gen. So my advice is dated. I would actually now avoid setting LLC levels unless your manually OCing and Krieger is pretty sound and correct in that other thread. I think from here on forward on the AMD platform … single core boost voltages should be okay in the 1.4 -1.48 volt range. And sustained should be under 1.4 V

A good normal reading:

I’m on Ryzen 1st gen… 1700X…

Its not the power supply. It did the same thing last year with the old power supply. So I bought new power supply. It is most definitely not the power supply.

It really can’t be a CPU related issue though. I have no idea how we all got there but this is either power or hard drive related. It could be the mobo since it is a B series chipset but mobos either work or they don’t. So I’m not really sure how we can aid you.
