Sorry for my bad English!

I have a problem with the new Ryzen 5700G processor. It freezes certain games, e.g. Life is Strange 2, (native and Proton) Diablo 3 (wine)... etc. I changed the kernel, (LTS, ZEN, AMD) mesa driver (mesa v22, open source AMDGPU) but nothing changed, the game still freezes after a few minutes.

I tryed a Fresh install (Arch, Ubuntu, Pop!_OS...) same hardware, same Game (Life is Strange 2) and BIOS setup etc, BUT freezes.

Finally I installed Windows and it works, it does not freeze! so no hardware problem. (and not OS specific)

I have no idea what the problem is.

- DeskMini X300

- Ryzen 5700G

- Crucial Ballistix 16GB KIT 3200MHz [BL2K8G32C16S4B]

- BIOS 1.70

Sorry for my bad English!

Hello,

Some people say that, the mobo needs a 120w psu for 65w cpu's but I'm not sure. Mine is 90w and it should suffice

What is the Vcore setting in the bios, along with the temps?
