I am planning to sell a newly purchased crucial ballistix max BLM2K16G44C19U4B if you are interested.

tried setting the profile manually on my intel board but seems like i couldnt get it to run stable on my end, reverting back to my stable but slower ram... sad man

CW game unstable, do not test for reliability with that game. Updates are still pending to fix the broken game.

watching him trying to figure out what's wrong with a gigabyte b550 and a 5950x is pure entertainment

Given that you're running pretty high v's, you should pump up the uncore to 4.9 for fps gains.

Would you be upgrading to the 11900k or sticking with the 10900k? I'm unsure if i want to move to the 11900k if performance is not warranted.

Just had my first taste of zen experience with my first whea error.
Also JFC this chip idle's hotter than my 10900k

I actually tweak the shit out of my 10900k, and i definitely enjoy seeing small real life gains and STABILITY from it (I mainly game with 1080p high refresh)

The 5900x however..... is just too much of a hassle to the point where i am just wasting my time trying to fine tune pbo limits (ended up just selecting motherboard as it resulted better all core clocks but with high voltage, no F given on degradation since ill be swapping it out in less than a year) and CO. Anything i touch on the PBO limit at the slightest will lead to my games crashing after some time.

The chipset temps for me is manageable. Its the 5900x idling temps i have a problem with (unless i disable pbo, it never idles below 40c....)

CO at -15 all core, too lazy to do slowly set each core (given minimal returns)

edit: tweaks aren't remotely the best, but i am looking forward to degrading this chip and moving back to intel.
