a 3900x solely for gaming is way overkill, even 3700x is more than enough to do the job

just like what Flayed said, try updating your BIOS first if theres any second, try reseating the RAM and check if the RAM is seated correctly after (while u reseating the RAM, clean the dust near the slot)

TDP (Thermal Design Point) is the maximum number of heat that the CPU generates during its loads or the maximum heat a cooler can manages - a CPU with TDP of 65W means that at its full load, the CPU generates 65W of heat. - a Cooler with TDP of 65W means that the cooler can only cools heat up...

depending on what u do, speed > latency assuming you dont know what real time latency is, this thread can give you more explanation https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/performance-impacts-by-cas-latency.2957674/ TL;Dr = get the 3600/16 one

no, u need motherboard from same gen, which is 200 series chipset motherboard,

fx 8350 will be worth for a few years (I'd say 2022) until AMD release new Ryzen gen that is stronger and cheaper the cheapest will be upgrade to 8350 so you can keep other parts or you gonna grab a new Ryzen or Intel gen along with new motherboard and new ram kit, meaning you need to spend...

normally, there would be no difference as their efficiency is the same but with right OC, both can do 3200Mhz just means that RAM is tested and can be safely clocked to advertised speeds, thus more bucks than 3000Mhz base speed will always based on motherboard

well, on your mobo box, is there a label of Ryzen 2000 Ready? if not, then the BIOS is not updated to even support 2200/2400

if you have a friend nearby or a local repair shop with the 1st Gen Ryzen, you can try it

as you state by yourself, verify that the BIOS is updated to the latest version

is that your bios version or the bios update file? no need to re-install windows 10, since it is not related to the OS

just to be sure, update the BIOS to avoid any system failure

what kind of gaming you do? in what res?

I can only say, have you try bios update?

try using the mod that reduces unnecessary objects, see if it helps, without mods, i5 4440 with 1060 6gb should getting 45-60fps at 1080p ultra try using msi afterburner to monitor the cpu and gpu temps and usage
