Repeated BSOD occurrences
Repeated BSOD occurrences
Since I built my computer (around 2-3 years ago), I have been getting BSODs quite often, but there are also large periods of drought in between where I don't get any. Most of them have the same error: WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. It gets really annoying and any help would be appreciated. Here is as much information as I know, if I've left something out please let me know. I've also attached the dump files of a recent BSOD and my Performance Monitor report. OS: Windows 11 x64, installed since I built it, I purchased it myself Age: roughly 3 years CPU: AMD Ryzen 5950X GPU: Nvidia 3070 RTX Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus X570S Elite Power Supply: Corsair RM850x SHIFT RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB DDR4 @ 3200MHz Any help would be great! Thank you!

I analyzed the dump using windbg and noticed the process name matches AuthenticAMD. The image appears to be AuthenticAMD.sys, which is a kernel module for AMD processors. The stack trace points to a fatal failure in memory handling, likely related to unknown fatality images. This suggests a serious issue with the AMD kernel environment.
The dump indicates a CPU hardware issue involving the bus/interconnect during instruction retrieval from the L1 cache. You're running an early BIOS version—make sure to update it. Verify CPU temperatures; any overclocking or undervoltage should be addressed. If the problem persists, a defective CPU is likely the cause.
It might be the motherboard or, less commonly, the power supply unit, but with this issue it's usually the CPU that's involved.
