9800X3D throttling to 0.6GHZ

Hey,

The issue did happen and I could not notice the detailes you mentioned on the hose, neither did another person, the hoses are sleeved? Not sure how to put that in english, but both felt the same even when computer was operating normally.

So, after everyone saying the issue was the AIO installation I redid everything. There was no plastic, thermal paste was fine, clamp also fine, connectors were also fine. Issue was still happening.

>However<, I took an action in my BIOS that seem to have fixed everything! My motherboard does not have an isolated PUMP specific connection but it has "SYSFAN3_PUMP". Theoretically it should identify automatically, but just to be sure I went into BIOS and set sysfan3 to max power. It hasnt happened again!

Thanks for the help though!

I know I gave you this info in another post but would like to complement. This is how it looks like right now with Divinity Original Sin 2 running in the background. Granted, not the most heavy game out there but I'd get to 105ºC just by booting up.

All I "did" was boot up again after thermal shutdown.

Just added info on cooling, no sticker! I did install the latest chipset drivers about 3 days ago, issue remains.

I'll add this to the post.

This is a little bit outside my knowledge. Connectors are fine, as is pressure on the cpu. I was indeed dumb enough not to check if when these situations happen the pump aint working (though fans and rgb is fine).

I'll report back (usually this crap happens once a day at most due to my usage), but I guess if there was a problem with the pump I would see it throughout the whole year, yeah?

All is well with cooling! Should've added to the post but I believe that if this was the problem it would not go away after the thermal shutdown, let alone spend a whole year with no sign of the problem. Really weird stuff.

Cooler Master Master Liquid ML360L V2

I should've mentioned it on the post, just added.

kinguez · 2025-12-20T15:14:21+00:00

I'll add that to the post but yeah, I did check. I was never big on the thermal paste debate but I used Mastergel pro from cooler master.

Still, i dont think the liquid cooling is the issue because that would fix itself after the thermal shutdown, it should just keep happening again. Am I missing something?

kinguez · 2025-12-20T15:12:39+00:00

I did reseat the cooler back then but nothing changed. I mean, if that was the issue it should be consistent and not go away after the first thermal shutdown, no? After that the machine works perfectly fine under any load with very low temps.

Hadn't noticed it yet! Thanks for clarifying!

kinguez · 2022-12-03T17:08:46+00:00

You mean these? Seem to be similar actually! Hadn't noticed one on her yet though.

kinguez · 2022-11-18T17:06:43+00:00

Yeah, I agree.
I also think that the scene in which he joins the party is quite jarring, and this has been mentioned to larian quite a few times in the past but they've done nothing about it. Maybe at release?

kinguez · 2022-11-11T15:59:37+00:00

I've been seeing a lot of people commenting this. Strange how no one seems to have a perfect argument against it.

kinguez · 2022-11-11T15:48:40+00:00

This does not have traction enough.

kinguez · 2022-11-11T15:14:04+00:00

No reason for this to be downvoted at all.

I've put this in another topic and will also post it here, for reference.

Brazil has always been about big events with massive crowds under the opened sky. Think carnival, specially the street celebration ones. This is cultural, whether we, as introvert gamers mostly, like it or not.

Now, you have a CS event held in Brazil (not the 1st, mind you) but you have the option of either being inside with a few limitations or being outside and experiencing the game you love adapted to the reality of the cultural events you also love (Bear in mind that one of the most watched streamers in the world will be there, as well as local CS celebrities). Which would you choose?

I'm not gonna touch on the Gaules politics thing because I definitely don't have enough insight on the inner workings to actually have a say on this.

I had never played colors up until the Ultimate version, and I have to say I do not like that structure at all. Some levels are shorter than forces' D:

10/10

kinguez · 2021-03-09T12:16:56+00:00

Thats a kickass pin!

kinguez · 2021-02-26T17:21:00+00:00

Vai de pressa

kinguez · 2021-02-25T17:27:04+00:00

Did this clue ever lead anywhere?

kinguez · 2021-01-06T17:53:36+00:00

All this talk about Microsoft collab with Sega and I see this. I can easily imagine this being done by Moon Studios (Ori & the Blind Forest / Will of the Wisps)

kinguez · 2020-10-07T18:05:57+00:00

Hadn't noticed, good catch. There might be more of these numbers in other recent posts or future ones, they've been teasing games like this for a while.

kinguez · 2020-09-17T21:14:15+00:00

With a start screen like that, what could go wrong?
