Spent all day chasing TM5 errors and want a sanity check.

Setup: 9800X3D, ROG Strix B650E-I (BIOS 3886), Corsair Vengeance 2x32GB 6000CL30 (CMK64GX5M2B6000C30), Hynix. TM5 extreme @ anta777 for all testing.

What I found:

• 6000 EXPO: instant errors, 5-40 seconds, every single time. Tried VSOC 1.25 (verified in ZenTimings, not just set in BIOS), FCLK 2000, VDDG bump, even a desk fan on the sticks with the side panel off. DIMMs went from 74C to mid 50s and it still dies in about 10 seconds
• 5800: fails at 26 min with VSOC 1.20, fails at 78 min with 1.25. The voltage tripled time-to-fail but didn't fix it
• 5600: full TM5 cycle clean, DIMMs around 60C

Each stick passes solo at 6000 (short runs only), so the sticks seem fine and this looks like a classic 4-rank IMC ceiling. Both sticks did apparently run 6000 fine about 2 years ago though, which bugs me. Could be a BIOS/AGESA change since then, or maybe it was never actually stable and I just didn't test properly back then.

Questions: anyone with 2x32 on a 9800X3D actually holding 6000 long term, and if so what voltages? Is there any point trying VDDP/VDDQ tuning or buildzoid style timings before I accept 5600 and move on? Has anyone seen an AGESA update knock a previously stable 64GB config down like this?

Not fussed about the 1% perf difference, more just want to know if I left anything on the table

BSOD/Almost Instant crashes with the above timing, this is DOCP 1 but I've tried both DOCP 2 and DOCP Tweaked

Much more stable with this timing, but 5600 max

I am very new to pc building or pcs in general so forgive me. I have a 16gb 9060xt with a 7500F and 32 gb of ddr5 Kingston ram. Expo (EXPO 1 specifically) is on and whenever I game every now and then , whenever it wants, my pc just crashes and restarts. It flashed a orange light for a while then a red one quickly then a white one.

I lowered my memory speed to 5600MHz, still the same, 5200MHz, still the same and it only stopped once I turned expo off and set it at 4800MHz. The windows event viewer says its a Kernel problem.

I thought it was a ram problem so I ran a windows ram test and nothing came back wrong. Right now I put my SoC voltage to 1.25 and am at 6000MHz as it seems putting the SoC voltage up keeps it at bay for a little longer. I am getting annoyed with my pc being a narcoleptic and wanted to see if anyone had any answers or tips.

Is there any problems to undervolt using just mvolt+ ? I set my max volt to 925mv but that gave me a max core speed of 2400mhz so i increased the core clock by 400mhz and now running on 2820 max and is very cool in temps , is there any drawbacks to this ?

guys

why my royal kit 6000cl28 and 6000cl30 kit both hynix a die single rank 32gb.

but to run 6000cl26 with the same timing. the cl30 one need only 1.5vdd another voltage the same. but for the royal need 1.55 to stable cl26🤦🏻‍♂️

that mean the cl30 one better?

Hey guys, I made the idiotic decision of pairing a R7 5700 non x Cezanne chip, with only 16mb l3, with an XFX RX7900XT. So to put it lightly, my CPU is the bottleneck. I want it to be as small of a bottleneck as possible, so I used Ryzen Master to OC it to 4.85GHZ as I don't know how to OC myself yet. Gaming is stable with it and everything, but I really want to get my bottleneck as small as I can.

I do understand that different architectures are different, but I just watched a video of a guy getting a 3ghz Pentium 4 to 4.81ghz, close to my own OC from 3.7Ghz. And now I'm wondering if I could increase it more somehow. Unfortunately, somehow I only find guides either fore other CPUs, or to OC this CPU to 4.6GHZ, or the rare one I found, 4.85GHZ.

Why do I believe it can go higher? Because I haven't touched it manually, I let it Auto OC itself. Somehow it must be possible to get it higher. Or make up for it somehow else, maybe overclocking RAM, but I doubt that helps much for gaming performance, and even then, isn't XMP just OC for the RAM anyway?

hey so i went from 9600x to 9850x3d and i’m wondering how aggressive i can push the uv and if i should set the voltage to a specific value considering there’s some 9800x3ds burning out there. my 9600X had 1.2v, PBO in AI tweaker (asus board) set to Enhanced and CO between -12 and -26 set per core from best to worst.

i’d like to remove the limits, have uv and let the chip boost higher whenever it needs to. my 9600x used pbo to boost higher and allow full power consumption when needed. idk if this chip is like perfected or something so i’m looking for advice.

has anyone spent some time tweaking these values? i don’t wanna run unsafe values considering the burn situation.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to understand whether the idle/light-load temperature of my Ryzen 9 7900X is normal or whether I have a cooling/configuration issue.

System:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900X
• Motherboard: ASRock B650E Taichi Lite
• Cooler: Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 420
• GPU: RTX 4070 Ti SUPER
• RAM: DDR5-6000, manually tuned
• FCLK: 2200 MHz
• UCLK/MCLK: 3000/3000 MHz
• BCLK is currently stock at 100 MHz
• CPU is otherwise stock — no PBO, no Curve Optimizer, no manual CPU overclock
• Ambient room temperature: approximately 25–28°C
• Outside temperature: approximately 32°C

The RAM is overclocked, but the CPU itself is currently running at stock settings.

The temperature I'm seeing

After leaving Windows mostly idle, the CPU sits around:

• CPU Tctl/Tdie: ~55°C
• CPU Die (average): ~54°C
• CPU CCD1: ~49°C
• CPU CCD2: ~39°C
• Individual core temperatures: around 36°C
• CPU Package Power: ~42 W
• CPU PPT: ~41 W
• Average Active Core Count: ~0.4
• Thermal throttling: No

HWiNFO recorded approximately:

• CPU Tctl/Tdie minimum: 54.2°C
• Maximum: 62.1°C
• Average: 56.5°C
• CPU Package Power: current 42.15 W, maximum 51.75 W
• CPU PPT: current 41.16 W, maximum 50.67 W

The pump is running at around 2288 RPM, and the radiator fans are also running.

What confuses me

The CPU isn't under significant apparent load. HWiNFO shows only around 0.4 average active cores, yet the CPU package is consuming approximately 42 W and the Tctl/Tdie temperature remains around 55°C.

At the same time, the individual core temperatures are much lower — around 36°C — and CCD2 is only around 39°C.

So there is quite a large difference between the reported CPU Tctl/Tdie temperature and the individual core temperatures.

For example:

CPU Tctl/Tdie: ~55°C

versus

Core temperatures: ~36°C

and

CCD2: ~39°C

My questions

1. Is ~55°C at ~42 W package power normal for a 7900X with an ambient temperature of approximately 25–28°C?
2. Is ~42 W package power while Windows is essentially idle normal for a 7900X?
3. Could the DDR5-6000 + FCLK 2200 + UCLK=MCLK configuration be contributing significantly to the package power/temperature?
4. Is the large difference between Tctl/Tdie (~55°C) and the individual core temperatures (~36°C) expected on Zen 4?
5. Could this indicate a problem with the Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 420 mounting/contact/pump, or does the data look normal?
6. What would you consider a reasonable idle/light-load temperature and package power for this CPU at 25–28°C ambient?

I will also run a 10-minute Cinebench 2024 multi-core test and can provide the maximum CPU temperature, package power, effective clocks and pump/fan RPM if that would help.

I'm particularly interested in feedback from other 7900X owners, especially those running a 420 mm AIO.

I want to test ram stability after lowering some of my timings. I want to run it overnight which people suggest but not sure how much memory to test I was doing 95% but when I looked it up on google I was told to do 80 - 85% for overnight test. Just wondering what you guys suggest

My CPU is 75°C and uses 250W in Cinebench 2026.

- All Cores are 5.2 GHz

- Thermal Grizzly Direct Die Block

- Conductonaut Extreme

- Room temperature 29°C

- 420 Radiator, 30mm thick

- D5 Pump at 55%

- PPT, EDC and TDC Limit is disabled

I compared my results with der8auer and his result are better.

290W, 65°C

The only difference is he uses a MORA and a ASUS Mainboard and his room temps id gues about 23°C. Im using a Gigabyte X870E.

Any Experts that can teach me.

Hi!

Recently got a higher voltage cl26 kit at 1.45v, current case airflow isn't the greatest since its small, and have read a lot of conflicting things on temps, some saying 55, 60, etc is the upper limit.

Currently don't have any plans to push it further, the expo timings have the trefi around 11k, which I read is the most sensitive part. Temps sit at around 60 ingame, and go upto 72-74 when stress testing memory.

Is that something to be worried about?
