Issues with Wi-Fi performance on Asus Tuf B650-Plus Stability problems during connectivity sessions
I recently assembled my PC using a Ryzen 7 7700 and the ASUS TUF B650-plus Wi-Fi. Initially, everything functioned properly. I managed to post, updated the BIOS (version 3035), enabled Expo, updated the system, and installed some games for testing. The setup worked smoothly for a short period before the system began restarting repeatedly. Reboot intervals varied, sometimes looping endlessly between boot and restart. After clearing the CMOS, turning off Expo, and starting with just one RAM stick, the problem persisted. I used the TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan 6000MHz memory kit (model KF560C30BBEAK2-32), which was listed as supported for my motherboard. This didn’t resolve the issue, and I’m still experiencing the same problems. A stability test with OCCT revealed a WHEA error before the system rebooted. I’ve explored various memory profiles and tweaks without success. I’ve noticed several discussions on Reddit and Amazon about memory stability issues with these boards. If anyone has faced this problem, what steps did they take to fix it? I’m happy to share more details if needed.
You're likely experiencing problems with the newest Windows 23H2 release. An update for 23H2 appears to be linked to stability issues on AMD processors. The recommended solution is to go back to an earlier 23H2 version or upgrade to Windows 24H2. A complete list of available builds would also aid in identifying further concerns.
If it doesn't work with 1 stick and expo disabled... I see no other option than to ditch the mobo
I attempt to go back to a previous release of the windws Build: Ryzen 7 7700 ASUS TUF Gaming B650-PLUS WiFi gigabyte rtx 4070 Z440 Lite 1TB NVMe PCIe Gen4 M.2 Noctua NH-U12S Seasonic FOCUS PX-750 windows 11 TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan 6000MHz, which I swapped in for Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB.
I've encountered problems with Expo functioning on the same motherboard. When trying to launch 4 sticks of Corsair Vengeance 16GB CL36 6000MT/s, I only achieved 5600MT/s using the 3035 BIOS with Expo turned off and timings set automatically—likely underperforming compared to the advertised rate. Switching back to BIOS version 3024 helped me activate Expo, and I set my RAM to its listed speed and settings. However, running at 6000MT/s still caused blue screen errors with the default profile. A tweak I discovered improved stability, as mentioned in a Reddit thread. I enabled Expo 1 and used the default profile, but encountered some issues afterward. AMD’s latest BIOS appears to have compatibility challenges, especially with higher configurations. There’s no straightforward way to report BIOS version issues on Asus, which is quite frustrating. After adjusting settings—like changing DDR and Infinity Fabric frequency/timings—I managed a successful Memtest86 run at 6000MT/s with four RAM sticks. I’ll also run benchmarks later to check for performance gains. Edit1 – Good update: I just passed Memtest86 at 6000MT/s with four sticks, and I plan to test benchmarks afterward. Edit2 – Blender benchmarks are improving by about five points after tweaking the settings that stabilized at 6000MT/s. Cinebench didn’t change much; the default BIOS version 3024 still shows as stable. Edit3 – AMD only promises up to 5200MT/s for a Ryzen 7000 with two sticks and 3600MT/s for four, so anything beyond that is uncertain. It’s not a silicon lottery if it doesn’t work. Consider using Memtest86 to verify RAM health; it can quickly highlight instability. You might want to wipe your Windows installation before proceeding. I’m currently running on an AMD 7900X CPU.
