Previous stable version on 6000MHz. Functioned well before.
Hello everyone, I recently purchased another 7800x3d graphics card for my brother. I transferred the one I had on my old PC (same CPU, new OS and drivers). I switched to the new card with the same CPU. Previously, my RAM was at 6000 MHz, but it became unstable with the new CPU. Now, when I launch a game, it crashes or the PC restarts. I tried running it at 5800 MHz and it works fine. I don’t mind the lower speed, but I’m curious why this happens. Thank you!
It seems like you're questioning whether luck still plays a role today.
Yes, the Trident Z5 Neo on your 7800X3D behaves poorly when mem context restore is enabled—constant crashes, freezes, or boot loops occur. It functions adequately on the EXPO 6000CL32 but isn’t as smooth and still doesn’t work properly.
It seemed like a problem of the past. My 7600x works well with my Corsair 6000.
the cpu is stuck in a bad state, like a trash bin. trying vosoc 1.25/1.3v should fix it, likely bringing it up to around 6000. average chips usually run about 6200, so there might be other tweaks you can try. if the mount isn’t working properly—this is linked to the imc—I’ve seen issues on x58 models. one mount failed at 2800c11, another stopped instantly, and a few ran for 12 hours without changing BIOS or swapping drives. it’s probably not a voltage problem either; at vtt 1.5v these only work reliably between 1.55-1.6v, especially at higher speeds. rams at 2.3v are overkill but might help if you go that high. alternatively, just lower the voltage on the soc to cool it a bit more. power usage is still noticeable on the cpus.
It might be due to how the motherboard handles the EXPO profile. I support testing lower SoC voltages. My system runs at 1.1V directly, but I recommend trying 1.2-1.3V as suggested. Have you installed the chipset driver from AMD.com yourself?
Here’s a clearer version of your message:
A small update for everyone—no clear reason. It turns out adjusting the RAM speeds caused a Windows kernel error. My system froze, I reinstalled it, but the same issue returned. Then I swapped in a new OS using my SSD, and it seems to be working now? Hmm, I’m curious about how a bad SSD could affect such a good setup.
