well any cpu can go pop. Had my 9800x3d on a taichi from the day they came out with PBO enabled....all good using 3.20 bios]]> Sat, 30 Aug 2025 01:24:34 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198876&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198876 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198731&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198731 Author: Xaltar

I would set the highest negative voltage offset to ensure PBO is not raising voltages
to dangerous levels. I would also set the SOC (VDD_SOC) to a negative offset to match
your PBO negative offset.

To be clear, I am not comfortable recommending anything short of updating your BIOS.
I say this because other users with similar questions will see this post. I am
not trying to scare you. Good luck and update your BIOS as soon as you are able
to ensure peace of mind and proper functionality with your 9800x3D ]]> Thu, 14 Aug 2025 22:41:50 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198731&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198731 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198729&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198729 Author: MistMerchant

Complicated to explain but yes I don?™t have a choice given the timing of build with personal things going on.

I?™ve read over the manual that?™s the issue. There is no disable listed in the bios for this mobo.

There?™s auto or enable, you can disable a bunch of other options but for some reason not this one.

Which seems really strange that you can?™t turn off when (depending on what mood they are in for the day) AMD considers PBO overclocking and voids warranty. ]]> Thu, 14 Aug 2025 19:48:10 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198729&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198729 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198726&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198726 Author: Xaltar

Honestly, why risk damaging your CPU? Even if the chance is one in a billion.
If you absolutely need to use the system without updating first then disable PBO
entirely.

See page 34 of your user manual and adjust your settings accordingly. Auto is enabled.]]> Thu, 14 Aug 2025 14:39:08 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198726&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198726 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198725&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198725 Author: MistMerchant

Just built a pc and the combo i have is a ASRock x870e Taichi, ASRock 9070 xt and r7 9800x3d I saw there was issues floating around that were impacting a small number of CPUs with these motherboards. Most of them appear to be using PBO and/or improper install. Was just curious if "auto" in bios is also considered disabled for PBO... if not can I just disable it entirely through a different method to avoid this being a potential issue?

BIOS is on 3.20 and don't have ability to update it for a few days but need to be using for some work/school tasks.

Thank you]]> Thu, 14 Aug 2025 08:26:41 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113297&PID=198725&title=x870e-taichi-9800x3d-disable-pbo#198725
