Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded my Cpu from Ryzen 7 7700x to Ryzen 9 7900x. Its started giving BSOD and freezing and restarting when on idle. Or i use some apps or use windows settings etc. It doesn’t give issues in stress test nor in games. But only when quitting games some time restarts. What could be an issue as i am frustrated i even reinstalled windows several times and even the gpu drivers started acting strange in event viewer but normal with Ryzen 7 7700x. Please can anyone help me.

Thank you

My Pc Specs.

Ryzen 9 7900x
Asus Tuf gaming B650M-Plus
Xpg Lance rgb 16gb x 2 6000mhz (32Gb)
Cooler Master Mwe 80plus gold 1050W
Galax Rtx 4080 SG 16gb
Asus Rog Ryujin 2 360 Argb
 
The "Validated since BIOS" column says "all" for both of those processors. I would probably reset CMOS after the change.

Don't forget to go back into BIOS and reset your memory speed after that.
How do i reset my memory speed, please can you explain me in a small brief ?
 
Did you ever even reset CMOS? If so how?

This was the first thing I said
I would probably reset CMOS after the change
Yes i did that i removed the battery and reinstalled it but still same freezes and restarts
Is my cpu defective or anything because same freezes and blue screen happening in windows 10.
