I’ve swapped a CPU going from 5600g to 5900x, unfortunately the system seems to bluescreen from time to time (usually takes hours in-game, otherwise stable)

For some reason it gets slightly worse when I enable XMP. Significantly worse if I undervold the CPU even a bit. Temps go no further than 80-85C 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.

    Reseat CPU and RAM, clear all BIOS settings to factory defaults, update BIOS (if there is any new BIOS available) should be steps that you hopefully have already performed?

    Also make sure that if you have chipset drivers installed that they’re the newest version possible.

    If things are stable, then you can start looking at running at XMP speeds and otherwise overclocking/undervolting/w.e.
