So after few crashes, random freezes with my new pc, I found out that it was a problem with windows 10 and it's powerplan, disabling the usb selective suspend setting did the trick, but now I noticed something weird in the ryzen master, the EDC is almost at 100% even in idle, and the PCT temperature is at 95°..

How I can solve this problem? And exactly  what is EDC? My specs are; ryzen 5 2600, B450 gigabyte aorus Elite, 16gb ram at 3000mhz, gtx 1660 and 650w B+ powersupply

Everything seems normal to me. You are within power spec and the PTC is the throttle point, it is not the CPU temperature. PTC simply designates the max temperature before the CPU shuts down. It is intended to be 95 on Zen

 

If the EDC number is for some reason scary for you, set windows to balanced power plan. That will make the scary red go away

 

As for the issues with Windows, those are likely due to the cheap power supply being junky. Not the OS

In your power plan you need to set Minimum Processor State to a value below 50%.  You can use any power plan you'd like as long as Minimum Processor State is below 50%.  I use Ultimate Performance and 20%.

Ryzen Balanced is now integrated into the default balanced setting. He just needs to select that and not use a junk power supply

Incorrect.

If Windows' balanced power plan has Minimum Processor State set to a value lower than 50% then it will work fine, but if it doesn't he needs to adjust it.  His PSU isn't the problem here (in regards to EDC).

Yeah, i meant the EDC readinf was caused by him messing with the power plan. And the freezing was most likely the power supply having issues with the CPU going into low power c states. It was common when Haswrll came and some cheap units still have issues.

It doesnt scare me, but I was just wondering with it is so hgh even if everything is at stock speed/voltages and while being in idle..As for the windows power plan, changing few things solved the problems, like i was getting random peripherals shutdown including monitor, and the only way to resove, was by restarting the pc.. However the powersupply is fine, its an corsair cx 650,nothing fancy but its ok

Did you check what Minimum Processor State was set to in your power plan?  If it's too high then the CPU won't be able to reach its lower power states during idle.  It will also prevent some cores downclocking to allow for some cores to boost higher during loads using only some of the cores.

Could also be a board issue but didn't your post say it's a B+ not a CX?

Yeah, i meant bronze, guess it was not clear.. I thought about motherboard issue but after endless searching i found out couple of people with same problems, then i disabled these few things and for now it seems ok

Well, your values are fine imo but you can fix.thr EDC by going with a balanced setting
