BIOS version is E7C02AMS.1I0 which is the newest version. RAM is running without XMP. It is DDR4, but I have also set it to run that way in BIOS. I think I am going to put my old CPU back in and see if I can use warranty for new CPU

As in, the specific unit I purchased is bad? Or the CPU is not compatible with my rig?

I have other components I can swap out from upgrading hardware over the years. I do not have a spare MOBO or PSU, though. I played a game to the point of crashing. I monitored VRM temps the entire time. I didn't see any temps higher than 64C. It sat around 60-63C for the majority of the time.

Right now, it appears as if that temp is good. its sitting around 42C. new CPU is brand new. Only the 3 days in my machine.

No overclocking anywhere in the system. I'm not really sure how to check VRM temps. I'm willing to check anything, though.

I ran the CPU/Memory test for an hour with no errors. I ran the 3D adaptive for 10 minutes with no errors. Ram only test had no errors. I have my old CPU, but I had no issues with it before I swapped it out. That was 3 days ago. The superposition benchmark seems to have run fine? I got a...

After running a power test for 10 minutes, I got the following error probably 50 times: Error - 3D Adaptive - 785808 error(s) found ( GPU #0 - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti ) I didn't export the report on accident, but I ran the test for another 10 minutes and got no errors.

I ran a default stability test for CPU and RAM for an hour with no errors.

I initially had it in UEFI, but after installing the new CPU, it would only boot to BIOS. After a quick google search, I found that booting in CSM solved this for a lot of people. It also solved it for me. PSU was updated last year. I want to say it has about 13-14 months on it, but I can't...

I have been slowly upgrading the hardware on my PC over the last few years. This week, I upgraded to CPU from a Ryzen 7 2700X to a Ryzen 9 5950X. I updated the BIOS and chipset drives, and I switched my UEFI settings to CMS. After upgrading the CPU, and only while playing games, will crash. I...
