Ryzen 5 at 0.54 ghz

[Kidblunder]

Hi, my Ryzen 5 CPU is stuck at 0.54 ghz, I recently upgraded my GPU to a 3060 ti and changed the case, not sure what the issue is. I've updated my drivers, checked temps and updated and reset bios.

what programs have you tried getting the CPU to higher clocks, and what program are you using to tell you the clock of your CPU? Please tell me it isn't task manager

Ryzen master and cpu-z, I haven't tried increasing it, couldn't figure out how.

wait... so you haven't tried running CPU intensive programs like a benchmark to check the clocks... wtf

okay sorry that was a little rude, CPU clocks change all the time in response to the load that is on the CPU. If you are not loading it it will sit a lower clockrate to save on power

My brother I can't run any CPU intensive tasks because it takes 20 minutes to open edge (fresh install of windows) every thing is very slow and unresponsive. I ran the built-in test in Ryzen master and nothing else.

Go to Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Power Options\Edit Plan Settings, select "Change advanced power settings" and verify if Processor power management > maximum processor state is at 100%.

What are the full system specs?

 

Generally it's a good idea to include this whenever you post for help and troubleshooting

You said you checked temps. What are they? Have you made sure you completely plugged in both halves of the 8 pin cpu power connector?

32c idle, Yes

when did you last update the BIOS? 

 

what storage do you use? (mostly out of curiosity)

Was it working fine before you updated the BIOS. what BIOS are you running?

I updated it in an attempt to fix the issue, it happened after moving the PC to a new case and adding the new gpu

Have you tried reseating the CPU?

 

Also tried with the original GPU in that case?

Sounds like Windows is really unhappy, or your HDD is not happy. What does the performance tab of Task Manager look like?

 

Either way, you can rule out a hardware issue by using a Linux live-USB. If it works fine there, then you know the issue is software or the HDD.

 

Edit: Also would be a good idea to DDU the graphics driver.

I'll try it in the morning, after I use a live USB to rule out it being a windows problem

Booted off a live USB and it was still slow and unresponsive (even by USB standards) could it be a motherboard issue?

What is your PSU?

Bios configuration, bad bios image, or thermal issues.

 

Clear CMOS, reflash BIOS, and go from there. It would be unusual for a motherboard to fail like that, they typically either work or they don't. (Though it is possible)
