Ryzen processors do not have a reputation of reliability problems, especially compared to the competitors of Intel Raptor Lake. However, no processor is completely resistant to instability problems. Youtuber Tech Yes City He came across one such system, dying Ryzen 7 5800x with solemn instability problems.
YouTuber caught 5800x from a seller who failed that the system operated fully after trying various problems solving. The chip was allegedly the second 5800x in its possession and stopped working after only 12 months of utilize. Techyescity promised to pay the owner of 30 USD for a chip if he managed to act.
After cleaning the chip and bending a few bent pins back to the position, YouTuber decided to solve 5800x stability problems. First, they allow the processor to sit in the BIOS for 30 minutes to see if it will fail in the BIOS. Fortunately, the chip passed, indicating that the layout of the system was not damaged.
However, the processor crashed during the 3-hour extreme test test, which was the next test by YouTuber. Stability issues were solemn because the allegedly bulky system crashed and was not wrong or BSOD.
YouTuber was able to fix problems with the processor’s stability, entering the BIOS and slowing down the processor through the PBO AMD tools, adding a negative shift of 300 MHz to the system. After saving and returning to Windows, 5800x Suceaphsa has passed an hour of the OCKT extreme test.
Downclocking 5800X has confirmed that the system suffers from degradation, causing at least one of the processor cores to destabilize at higher frequencies of increasing the system. Tech Yes City tested the chip in several games in several games to see where the chip would be able to 5700x and other more up-to-date Ryzen processors. Surprisingly, the processor was still able to maintain competitive game results, even exceeding 5700x in some titles, despite reducing the speed of the clock by 300 MHz.
For example, in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, down Ryzen 7 5800X reached an average of 152 FPS, and Ryzen 7 5700x reached 147 FPS.
CPU should never degrade over a few years of utilize, not to mention 12 months or shorter. However, the technique of decreasing Tech Yes City is an effective STOPGAP solution to repair stability problems from accelerated processor degradation. This technique was a particularly common practice with the Intel Raptor Lake processors before the processor manufacturer issued updates of the system software to fix architecture problems.
