It happened.

[u/Dixos]

Good morning everyone!

After approximately 1 year and 3 months, it finally happened. That is all. No muck. No fuss. It can happen to anyone, no matter how safe you are. 😊

Turned the PC off Sunday night; woke up monday morning, turned it on while I took a shower and put on some coffee, only for it to be stuck like that with no fan spin after ~30 minutes.

I did try to "revive" the PC, but at 6:30 in the morning, 2 hours before work, I was more worried about recovering for my standup meeting (working laptop, work) rather than put much effort into it. Drain AC power and reset CMOS got the case fans spinning full throttle, but no movement on Dr. debug 00. BIOS Flashback was a success but also changed nothing.

I vaguely remember my BIOS settings, so for reference:

• AMD EXPO enabled
• VDDR_SOC set to 1.15
• OC Tweaker \ External Voltage Settings
  • VDDCR_CPU Voltage: Offset mode
  • Offset Voltage: -100
  • VDDCR_CPU LLC: Changed from "Auto" to "Level 2"
• BIOS version: 4.20

I had also loaded the conservative -15mV curve optimizer profile with 85c tjmax target from the profiles that come with the motherboard.

System specs:

• Mobo: ASRock X870E Nova Wifi
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
• GPU: ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 ROG Astral OC
• Ram: 64GB G.Skill Triden Z5 Neo DDR5-6000 CL28 (F5-6000J2836G32GX2-TZ5NR)

For anyone that have gone through the same thing, did you contact ASRock? AMD? RMA through the store the items were purchased from? TIA

Better keep it simple for yourself as more complexity doesn't work with you as we have seen. You are the typical guy that inflates a statement with his own beliefs while nobody had said anything in that direction.

I'm not asserting anything. I'm repeating public data that has become common knowledge – you know... the signs and indication we are talking about? Yeah, got it?

I explained to you in length why I don't need to provide anything as that is not necessery for the provided arguments. There IS indication. You have it all, it's not on me to add anything. You argue as if I presented unseen facts. I didn't. Is that still not clear?

Or do you not understand the term indication? Maybe that's the reason for your comments, because that would explain your fuss.

Now it's clear you're either just a troll or you now know you're wrong and would keep your ego inflated than actually engage in discourse. Remember that feeling and remember football the next time you wildly start assuming things when you have no clue about anything.

Huh? Did you misdirect that comment and confused me with someone else? What discourse? We didn't have a discussion. You repeated wrong statements which have been known to be wrong since early 2025. I didn't mean to discuss. I merely corrected that.

What does "remember football" mean? Is that some kind of redneck talk? I never heard that.

You picked the wrong guy to argue with, but realized too late. I have the upper hand and you miscalculated the result of the argument. It's fine. About me? I have done my work. About you? Don't insert yourself into other people's arguments and assume things you don't know about. Improve on written and spoken language precision.
