This is going to be a lengthy post, so bear with me.
On may 9th i ordered parts for a new computer, all the parts arrived May 12th.
This means i am now outside the Amazon return window.
The parts i ordered are a Ryzen 7950X3D, ASUS Tuf Gaming B650 Plus WiFi, Zotac Gaming RTX 3060ti OC, and G.Skill Flare X5 Series (AMD Expo) 32GB RAM.
Here comes the part where I am absolutely stumped and i have no clue what to do. I recently have been getting random BSOD's on this system, i am running Windows 10, but stripped down using Atlas OS (I'm going to wipe and go back to normal windows), most of the time it's a NTFS.sys blue screen, other times it's been a different .sys but that at the time i didn't mark it down. Just today, the day smack after the return window closed, my system poofed. I was chilling watching YouTube with Fan Control testing fans in the background, the system poofed as in the screens went black, all RGB was gone, pressing the power button flashed RGB, even the RGB that lights up when the system has power (eg when psu on or system shut down) was off. I unplugged the PSU, waited, plugged it back in, system did not post but board stayed powered, error Lights on my Mobo showed a CPU problem. I unseated the CPU to check for damage, i found 2 bent Mobo CPU pins which i am 100% sure were not like that when i installed the CPU. On the bottom of the CPU there were darker patches but didn't look like it was burnt as per the recent or past 7950x3D problems. I did notice carbon scoring, or at last making on the contact pads in clusters in isolated areas, dunno if this is normal.
I saw the bent pins and decided to stick the CPU back in, because why not, maybe it will work for some reason. and sure enough it booted to windows, but took a bit and kept throwing random error codes, went in a order similar to this: DRAM (normal post behavior to flash dram light)>CPU>VGA>CPU>VGA>BOOT. Note that after this happened all my bios settings reset.
I'm not really sure what to do at this point because it is too late to return it all to Amazon, and it's really frustrating how unstable it is, espically how the main problems started the day after i can no longer return them.
Thanks for the read, apologies this was a bit of a rant, but any help would be appreciated.
Things to note.
My OS is on a 1tb SSD
I have a Sabrent Rocket 2.0 M.2 drive mainly for games.
EDIT: i have 2 PSU's one is an EVGA 600 B, the one currently in my system is a Rosewill HIVE 750S
Bios: TUF GAMING B650-PLUS BIOS 1601 (not stock) ---newer more stable version available, i will flash it tomorrow when i get a chance.
Using AMD Expo 1 to get full speed out of my ram (system by default had the ram at 4200mhz instead of the supported 6000mhz), other options for AMD Expo are available in bios
