BSOD after CPU swap - Lemmy.world

I’ve swapped a CPU going from 5600g to 5900x, unfortunately the system seems to bluescreen from time to time For some reason it gets slightly worse when I enable XMP. Significantly worse if I undervold the CPU even slightly. Temps go no further than 80-85 under full load. Would appreciate your thoughts on potential reasons. Specs: 5900x B550m DS3H (Swapping tomorrow to B550 Tomahawk) 3600Mhz 2x16Gb Kingston Fury (2400mhz if JEDEC) 6700xt Saphire Pulse 750W Zalman GigaMax Will also be reinstalling Windows after motherboard swap.

Since my lemmy crashes when trying to edit the post, I’ll leave an update as a comment.

For now I’ve limited wattage supplied to CPU, which solved the issue.

So, basically, there are only 3 options which could be the cause.

  • Wrong automatic motherboard settings. Which seems to be the most likely option.

  • PSU protection gets wrongly triggered. That would be unusual, this particular model should be reliable.

  • Faulty CPU. This is even less likely due to the way they’re manifactured.
