It can take hours or minutes, happen idle or load, but my computer tend to freeze with Precision Boost Overdrive enabled on 4.81 beta bios. Using 2700x. Nothing else has been changed in the Bios other than memory clock, but setting this lower does not seem to solve the issue. Temps are extremely low at all times. I understand that this is a beta driver, so I'm not looking for a solution as I imagine that is impossible, but I'm wondering if anyone else have had a similar issue with PBO? Thanks! |

| I believe it is fixed. I Changed power settings from balanced to Ryzen. |

| I take that back, got another freeze. Many hours in-between though. |

have you tried adjusting your CPU voltage just a notch or two? this might be necessary to get the extra stability with PBO. Let me know how it goes. P.S. I own an x370 Taichi, and it is almost identical (aside from looks) to your mobo. ------------- https://valid.x86.fr/lcd1c8" rel="nofollow">

I wanted the Taichi way more actually, but ASRock had some issues with slow lead times due to Chinese holidays. My OC is automated through Precision Boost Overdrive. I googled around and the problem seems to be voltage and memory related. I have now tried to up the Vram voltage in addition to a bit higher VDDP and SOC voltage. I'm running 3200 Mhz with 1.4v. Been about 8 hours and stable so far! |

Congratulations on getting things stable. What I meant by "adjusting CPU voltage just a notch or two" was to try adjusting CPU offset voltage + a notch or two. Sorry I wasn't clear on that. ------------- https://valid.x86.fr/lcd1c8" rel="nofollow">

I was sure the problem was PBO, but nope. This might explain my problem, Looks like my F4-3200C14D-16GTZ memory or MB is faulty. I changed from 1700x to 2700x, and this is likely to be the reason. Not sure how I could have damaged the ram though, I only removed two screws and I heated the CPU (by running the computer) for easy removal before replacing it. I hope I'm wrong again. |
