The motherboard believes you're using through-hole, but you have a Ryzen 5 3600X.
The motherboard believes you're using through-hole, but you have a Ryzen 5 3600X.
The issue seems to be with your motherboard detecting the Ryzen 5 3600X as lacking SMT support. You may need to check your motherboard's specifications or consider updating drivers. Alternatively, it could be a hardware limitation—verify with the manufacturer or explore BIOS updates.
I experienced a similar issue before. I powered down the device for testing, updated the BIOS while it was off, and after the update it displayed enabled yet remained disabled. I don’t remember the precise actions, but the suggested steps are: restore BIOS defaults and check, if that doesn’t work, locate the SMT setting, disable it, restart, then turn it back on and restart again.
I've already tried that. The issue is that I can't locate the option in my BIOS settings—it isn't there at all.
If it's accessible or not shielded by hardline watercooling, I'd simply disconnect the PC and press the power button a few times to let it discharge. Remove the BIOS battery, then press the power button several times. Wait ten seconds before reinserting it. It should reboot to its original settings automatically. Also, the software reset sometimes fails until a proper reset occurs.
Have you confirmed the default settings were saved after the flash?
