    Question New Ryzen 9 5900x black screens when starting cinebench r23 ?

    I swapped out the mobo, and that fixed my issues, at least so far. 10 min of cb23 + significant time running another app that guaranteed quick crashes (never made it past 30 seconds).

    Question New Ryzen 9 5900x black screens when starting cinebench r23 ?

    I recently ran Crystal and found that while all of my other speeds seemed within range of normal, the 4kQ32T1 speeds were well below advertised. This is on an os drive, but I feel the drop is way too large to be just the OS. Or if it is, I have something very wrong installed on it. Samsung...
