Default Settings 9800X3D Instantly Failing Aida64 Stress Test

[YTP]

Hey all,

I built a new system with a 9800X3D, ASRock x870E Nova, and 32GB of DDR5 6000 CL30 a few days ago and have been testing for system stability and a potential undervolt. I noticed that my initial undervolt settings (-30 CO, +200 Mhz) seemed stable in a few benchmarks but then threw the hardware failure error on the default settings Aida64 stress test within a few seconds of starting. I then set disabled PBO, disabled EXPO, and turned off any other OC-related settings in the BIOS to check stock system stability. To my surprise, they system still fails the Aida64 stress test within 5 seconds of starting even on stock CPU settings without any OC/UV.

I also tried only stress testing CPU/FPU or CPU/FPU/cache, and at least twice this has caused the system to freeze up within a few seconds of starting the test, requiring a manual restart via the power/reset button. If i just select one test at a time (e.g. CPU only, FPU only, cache only) then the tests seem to run without issues. The system appears otherwise stable in benchmarks and stress tests such as OCCT, Cinebench R23, CPU-Z, so I'm trying to figure out if this is a bug with Aida64 or an actual hardware issue that may require an RMA. For reference, I am using Aida64 7.60.7300.

Any suggestions or feedback would be appreciated!

Try to set tCR (Command Rate) to 2T, and also disable Turbo Boost.  Check if it helps to stabilize your system.  We've seen an AM5 motherboard that failed with Turbo Boost enabled and had to be RMA'd.
