PC crashing since W11 upgrade

It’s does say on the cpu 500Mhz - 4.3Ghz, or something like that!

Guess it might after all
Thought it went to 4.6ghz
But so many cpus it's hard to remember them all
And individual speed
Though I very rarely see my cpu totally idle
Which is probably why 500mhz seemed low
Was it 500mhz when doing nothing?
If so that's OK
Obviously if it wasn't boosting up
Once you started doing something
That's not ok
 
Leave it auto, but use curve optimiser to up the voltage a little. Or just set the offset voltage. Don't manually force 1.4v unless you are manually forcing other settings too (ocing).

Otherwise you're forcing really high voltage all the time, and it'll cause lots of extra heat. It only needs 1.35 or 1.4 for single for boosts, during all core loads at a few hundred less mhz etc it'll only want 1.15 per core etc.

It could be, but it's just as likely that its any other, or combination of, hardware. CPUs are run pretty close to the limit, but stock settings, nowadays. So it's not the most uncommon thing in the world to need to adjust things a little on some systems.

If you can get it stable with a minor adjustment, I wouldn't worry about it. It might not even happen on another motherboard, with a different psu, or with different cooling etc. It's likely a combinaton of several factors creating an edge case.

Although if it's in warranty and you can be bothered, should be able to RMA it fine.
 
you could rma psu or cpu
but good chance neither might show issues
depending on how they test them

have you tried adjusting LLC in the bios?
or adjusting EDC,PPT,TDC ?
or as ch3m1c4l said some sort of dynamic voltage
adjustment/curve
rather than a set/fixed voltage
 
Had the same problem with a 3800x, stable in all stress tests but would crash in games, could use Ryzen master to set a fixed frequency and voltage before gaming to mitigate the problem but I returned it in the end.
