That's accurate, both my MSI B350 and B550 are set to 1.35, but my BIOS won't recognize it at 1.35 with XMP or OC settings—it should be 1.36! It's odd you mentioned it worked before, but you might want to try 2933; many Ryzen models handle that value well. As for the main problem, I'd consider replacing the motherboard first, as it's possible something was damaged during the process, and then a new CPU if needed.

I faced the same issue before upgrading my Ryzen CPU. The cooler stuck to it. I thought about warming the thermal paste by doing a benchmark test on Windows. While the test ran, I forced the cooler off (maybe twisted it instead) and the system crashed—definitely not typical. I’m unsure if the CPU got damaged since I replaced it right after, but the motherboard seemed okay.
