I’ve managed to lower my 5800X to a point where it crashes immediately at boot using only stock configurations. The issue seems to be linked to the CPU, as it replicates exactly in another system and causes freezes during stress tests. I’m certain it’s not a software problem since it works fine with undervolt settings (4.5Ghz @ 1.2v). The crashes appear randomly across different platforms—Windows 11 boot screen, Linux, and even when using PBO & CO didn’t help. BIOS is up to date, and I’ve tried every troubleshooting method I know. I’m not sure what caused this after three years of ownership, but I’m hesitant about replacing the CPU since my games are mostly GPU-intensive and I play at 4K resolution. I’m considering a 5700X3D from Aliexpress or possibly moving to an AM5-based build with the upcoming 9800X3D. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Unless you're also improving your GPU, upgrading to the 9800x3D doesn't really make sense unless you can afford it. It also crashes when you run at 1.3v, which suggests it needs to be overvolted to function properly—it seems a bit strange, right?
