IMPORTANT UPDATE - See first post
what does this mean? your system won't post at 1900 but works fine at 2000? man i need to start re-testing i guess, wtf?

UPDATE: 2000 FCLK works !!? Is my 5950x a dud ?- wont do 1900Mhz FCLK no matter what

yes indeed very very strange - posts and boots nicely at 2000 FCLK but completely refuses posting at 1900 FCLK - goes into endless Qcode loop and needs a CMOS reset to get alive again... I do however see some WHEAs at 2000 FCLK but haven't had time to explore further yet with voltages to see if I can get it stabilized and WHEAs removed.

I have the opposite problem.
1900 Works flawlessly, but anything over that I get a Code 07. I can boot in with 4000 mhz 1900 FLCK, but 1933+ Code 07. Not even sure a Bios update will fix that as it sounds like the new BIOS update will only help make those booting in with 2000 FCLK more stable.
Wonder if there is anything I can try to brute force it to 2000. Wonder if there are any brute force methods to get it working, i.e higher than normal SOC etc.

Ok so I'll join this thread. I could, on every bios I got for my ASUS board, boot at 1900 to 2000 without too much issues, but anything past 1900 was rather unstable. Not like BSOD unstable but WHEA errors in idle unstable.
1900 I could stabilise but once in a while I had few whea 19 warnings (corrected hardware error type) typically during heavy load (OCCT, Prime95, y-cruncher) and not very dramatic, just 1-2 errors every few minutes (and playing with voltages only made it less stable), while tests were running fine without any errors or warnings (only OCCT is reporting WHEAs by itself)
Things I did to improve it was:
tweaking vsoc/vddg/vddp voltages - very little improvement at best, but it was easy to make things worse, by worse I mean having wheas at idle, or a dozen in first minute of stress test instead of 1 during 5 minutes of stress test
vsoc LLC set to 5 (max for ASUS) this one was the best, since it gave me VSOC of 1.1V flat, way better than setting it to 1.125 to compensate for the drop
enabling ECO mode (lowering my 5800X TDP from 105 to 65W) this also improved stability at FCLK 1900, but overall performance is worse (like 10% less CPU power in multicore tasks, gaming almost unaffected, also way lower temperatures, so it's a nice to have option for summer time)
But it was never perfect, yea I could run stress tests for quite some time without any wheas, but then while gaming for a week I saw 2-3 errors were recorder, once.. and it just triggers my OCD so hard.
With current BIOS based on AGESA 1.1.8.0. FCLK 1900 became much more stable. Even on default voltages which are pretty wrong I can run Prime95 and other tests for hours, gaming and overall stability is yet to be determined. I agree this all situation to some extend loooks like a BIOS issue, something is wrong, and depends on the chip you got, you may or may not experience it a bit more or less.

No problems for me on my x470. My previos Ryzen 2600 would max out at 3400mhz cl14. But with the 5900x I could easily hit 3800mhz stable although when FLCK was on auto it would give me 1800 but fixed it by manually setting it to 1900.
However I'm getting a lot of WHEA errors. 2143 in the last 47 mins
Edit: ok so I lowered my ram to 3600Mhz CL15 and I don't have WHEA errors.
Edit2: New Bios out for my x470 which as Curve Optimizer but more importantly no more WHEA errors at 3800Mhz

Yea this is always worth thorough investigating, I thought I'm 100% WHEA free, but then once every second day single warning was recorded, funny thing is this was not during serious stress test but kids playing some Roblox game..
