    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    Following these instructions perfectly I'm getting an error booting from the USB "ROM file size does not match existing BIOS size"...

    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    I don't see anywhere in there that says it retains Ryzen 3000 support? 2406 was needed in order to POST with the chip.

    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    I've tried reflashing the bios to the same result. But yes, my chipset driver is current. SOC is at 1.087

    See I'm hoping this is the case as well, I just struggle to understand why I seem to be the only one with this particular issue.

    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    The plan is still to swap to a 570 when more are released. Since there's only 1 ITX option rn w/abysmal I/O . I don't see from your link where I can roll back to the previous version, while keeping 3000 support? That would be an excellent thing that I haven't tried yet.

    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    I’ve heard about the undervolting! However as it stands that’s the only way I’m able to run Assassins Creed Odyssey. But isn’t SOC ties to another voltage?? I’m completely new to Ryzen so I’m unsure as to how things tie together. Others have suggested that it could be the CPU IMC, but idk how...

    RAM is currently at 3466 with fclk @ half that. No more stable though, still instant lock up, not bsod, just hard lock when I start Aida, p95, cinebench, even Tine Spy....

    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    I'm on 2406 yes, and I have seen the posts about problems, but I haven't come across anyone that has as much instability as my system (i.e. all others I've spoken too are able to run benchmarks/stability tests). And the windows was a reinstall, yes.

    Question Why can't my 3700x run ANY benchmarks???

    I have had a nightmare weekend trying to get this build up and running. The long short is that I am able to run some games/applications seemingly fine. Others instantly HARD lock my system forcing me to do a hard shut down. System specs below. I have tried bios settings at default, RAM docp...

    Is my CPU cooler going to cut it??

    Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone could shed some light on a concern I'm having about cooling my new cpu. I picked up an i7-6700k and I'm looking to overclock anywhere in the 4.5-4.7ghz range (hopefully). I originally intended on picking up a beautiful Cryorig R1 ultimate, and tbh I'm still...
