CPU malfunctioning for the third consecutive time. Here’s a summary of your setup:

- **Power Supply:** 1000 Watt quiet mode, Pure Power 12 M Modular 80+ Gold
- **RAM:** 64GB (2x 32GB) G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO DDR5-6000 DIMM CL30-40-40-96 Dual Kit
- **Main SSD:** 1TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 2280 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3 3D-NAND TLC (MZ-V7S1T0BW)
- **Second SSD:** 2TB Kingston NV2 NVMe M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 3D NAND (SNV2S/2000G)
- **Cooling System:** Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 All-in-One
- **Mainboard:** Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX AMD X670 So.AM5 Dual Channel DDR ATX Retail
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D 12x 4.40GHz So.AM5 WOF

My CPU has failed three times since I upgraded my graphics card. Initially, after installing a 24GB PowerColor Radeon RX 7900 XTX Hellhound and later the GigaByte GeForce RTX 4090 for CUDA support, the system functioned normally—except for occasional laggy input/output issues that resolved after rebooting. Once the GPU changed, problems emerged. After replacing the motherboard, the issues stopped. Now, with the new CPU, everything works perfectly for about two weeks, but then the system crashes or fans run at maximum speed. The PC won’t boot at all.

I suspect this might be a recurring problem, though I’m unsure if it’s related to the changes. No error lights have appeared recently, and the BIOS is current. The fans are spinning near 100% capacity, or they operate as expected but the system fails to start. The RAM and PSU appear to be in good condition, and wiring checks confirm everything is correct.

I’m seeking advice on possible solutions.

The main issue is clearly due to the mobile device itself.

Inspect the tension on your cooler, remove it if necessary, reapply it carefully—excessive force may lead to problems. If you have a compatible replacement frame from brands like Thermalright or Thermal Grizzly, swap it out entirely. Ensure your RAM is placed in slots B1 and B2 (two CPU bays away). After that, I concur with the other person: consider swapping the motherboard itself. Don’t just use another identical model; try a different one to see if it resolves the issue.
