Help with WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR

[loremastr]

So for the past 2ish weeks I’ve developed a  problem where during or after closing a game, my PC crashes BSOD and says WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong and have tried a couple solutions of the following. Any suggestions is helpful! I don’t know what developed this error as I was never persistent in making changes in my computer since it always worked great. I don’t overclock either and leave everything be in the BIOS. (especially since I just updated the BIOS and haven’t made any changes) I don’t think it’s overheating either because it’s always ran perfectly fine where it stands for air flow hot or cold.

 

i have tried:

-Updating the BIOS

-Updating the GPU’s Drivers

-Ran Cinebench R20 for single and multi core

-Ran Haven Benchmark

-Disconnected the power for a couple of hours

 

PC:

-Ryzen 5 5600x

-Nvidia RTX 3080

-(8x2) 16GB 3000MHz GeIL ram 

-1200W Corsair PSU

-2TB Samsung 860 EVO SSD

-1TB Seagate Barricuda SSD

-B450 Carbon Pro Gaming AC

Also check if your CPU is properly seated into your socket.

This is a long standing, well known Ryzen bug,  cause unknown...

 

Though there are a couple of fixes you can try.*

Also lots on reddit, r/amd and otherwise (though I don't have the links right now)

 

Basically it's a pcie  / chipset driver  / general poor driver support compared to a not further named "blue" company issue. 

Although they have this bug too just much less frequently.

And no, the info this is only 570 is obviously incorrect,  it can happen on any ryzen board. 

(I get those too, I'm just lucky and it's not crashing)
