Is my ryzen 3600x faulty?

You buy this cpu second hand? if not why not just rma it.

I mean if it's definitely the cpu that's faulty. ocuk already replaced the 8 pack ram which it turns out wasn't the cause, it's just the other possibility is the board which was not from here

 

[humbug]

It took three weeks but it crashed again! That's with CPU at 1.15V, -50mhz, ram at 3600 with IF at 1800, SOC at 1.17. At this rate i think i'm prepared to just live with it if it's only going to crash that often, just think only about 17 more crashes till the cpu gets changed anyway! But knowing my luck it will gradually worsen again

Try your CPU at 1.16v (-40mv)

I’d really be taking this down to 3200. The IF on some chips can’t run that high.

Go back to 3200 and try from there and gradually increase. Ensure that the voltages are set correctly. Have you also updated your BIOS as that’s another consideration. Once you have it running and stable then increase it.
