PC Randomly Black Screening after upgrade

[SurfaceUser02]

I am crossposting this from Reddit to hopefully get some insight.

 

I just upgraded my PC and I'm running into an odd issue.

 

I bought a PC with an AsRock B450M-HDV R4.0 board with a Ryzen 3 2200G. I upgraded the CPU to a Ryzen 9 5900X and installed an ARC A750. I purchased a Thermalright Frost Spirit 140 to cool the CPU.

 

I updated the BIOS to version 4.90 to make sure my CPU was compatible and I was able to enable Resizable Bar.

 

I ran into issues last night where the PC would shut down almost immediately after getting into Windows. I had a Thermaltake 500W so I figured that was where the problem lied. I picked up an EVGA 750W PSU and the system is stable while web browsing and while discord is running.

I attempted to boot up CS2 to see a comparison in frame rates and quality. As it was getting started the PC shut down again.

Update: Black screened when downloading update for Phasmaphobia, then black screened when launching browser. It seems to not get as far as before. CPU and GPU temps are normal. CPU ~54 GPU ~64

 

Update: ran sfc scannow and it reported it had fixed errors. I checked the windows event log and there were a lot of errors, but nothing directly pointing to anything.

 

Any suggestions?

Whose idea was for you to put the highest power drawing warmest Ryzen destroyer of VRM-s on a board with so bad VRM-s which aren't even cooled in any way?

C'est bad mon ami.

 

At least flash the latest Bios. Agesa 1.2.0.6. isn't known as a good AGESA. And put some fans to blow on the VRM-s. Try upgrading the board or downgrading the CPU.

Hey fair enough lol. Got it for 250 on Amazon, so that’s why it’s a weird choice.

 

I wasn’t planning on upgrading the motherboard but if I need to I will.

 

4.90 is the latest non-beta release as far as I’m aware.

Well. That windows refresh didn’t do anything for me. Looks like I get to make an expensive trip tomorrow.

Going with a 5700X or even the 5700X3D would probably work fine with that board. The 5900X is the problem. Maybe you're still inside the return window?

 

The 5900X is better for productivity, but it's bad for gaming, comparable to a Ryzen 5600 in most cases.

why i mention what. was a win 10 driver bug ... which can cause corruption of drive.

i had to cmd line wipe it . before os install. took me moths to figure it out.

New mobo did it. MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus. Thanks for the help!
