Issues and sudden failures with certain ASRock boards and Ryzen 9800x3D pair.

and we blame Intel (13th/14th Gen Processors) Only, because Intel Admit the issue ....

Intel rises from failures most of the times but Amd have Ryzen across the odds hence refuses to admit and pass on the blame..

to be fair, intel pushed the blame on board partners first which was later revealed that the fault was on the intel chips.

is AMD trying to blame board, GPU & PSU?

Here is a statement from amd below with current situation. I'm not sure if it's a blame other than saying they're working with the board partner.


We are aware of a limited number of user reports involving ASRock AM5 motherboards failing to complete POST. Following a joint investigation, AMD and ASRock identified a memory compatibility issue present in earlier BIOS versions, which has been rectified in the latest BIOS. ASRock has already issued guidance on this behavior and addressed a singular report of a damaged CPU.

It’s worth noting that a failure to POST can be caused by a range of factors and does not necessarily indicate a non-functional CPU. We recommend users start by updating their BIOS to the latest version available for their specific motherboard model.

If the issue persists, we encourage users to contact our customer support team for further assistance and diagnostics.



For contrast, here is intel's statement (without table) before chip oxidation came to public knowledge.

Several motherboard manufacturers have released BIOS profiles labeled 'Intel Baseline Profile'. However, these BIOS profiles are not the same as the 'Intel Default Settings' recommendations that Intel has recently shared with its partners regarding the instability issues reported on 13th and 14th gen K SKU processors.

These 'Intel Baseline Profile' BIOS settings appear to be based on power delivery guidance previously provided by Intel to manufacturers describing the various power delivery options for 13th and 14th Generation K SKU processors based on motherboard capabilities.

Intel is not recommending motherboard manufacturers to use 'baseline' power delivery settings on boards capable of higher values.

Intel's recommended 'Intel Default Settings' are a combination of thermal and power delivery features along with a selection of possible power delivery profiles based on motherboard capabilities.

Intel recommends customers to implement the highest power delivery profile compatible with each individual motherboard design as noted in the table below:
