To finish it up: I sent back the CPU to AMD, which tested it again and showed that it was defect. I got a RMA and they sent me a new one, which I installed today, and until now, everything seems to be perfectly fine.

Ok, then I will uninstall Armoury Crate and replace it with HWInfo64. I was running Windows 11 first, but hoped that (even if I could not really believe it) this was the problem, then cleared all partitions and then installed windows 10. BIOS is, according to the ASUS website, up to date. I...

So Armoury Crate showed me spikes up to 1.7 V, after which it immediatly shuts down. In the system log, windows then also shows me "WHEA uncorrectable error", indicating the hardware problem

Thanks everyone. So, I figured out that the shutdowns are not due to the heat, but more due to overshooting of the CPU voltage. When regulating it manually, I can play on a stable system. Does anyone know, why the CPU is supplied with higher voltages than it can handle? I checked, the BIOS...

But what do you have to look for in a cooler? I thought comparing the TDP values of the CPU and the cooler is enough. The cooler says it's for TDPs lower than 135 W, with a power consumption of 105 W of the CPU, I thought there cannot be more power loss due to heat than 105 W. I'm using the...

Hi, I have a new build computer, but my CPU is heating up very fast. In idle, it has approximately 33 °C, but already when browsing through the web, it heats up to 70 °C. Starting WoW, the CPU shuts down due to overheating after a few seconds, reaching temperatures above 90 °C. Also running...
