if you read my previous message in that same link I said this: I had random reboots in all the Zen 3 processors I have used on my motherboard, using the stock-auto settings. After many hours of testing and calibration using CoreCycler and Curve Optimizer I have not had any in almost 2 years.

I missed that. I have a Zen 2 processor and never happened to me until now, I got a R9 3900X.

Have you tested your memory for many hours with a program like mprime while your graphics card was working at 100%?

If we rule out memory problems, I'm afraid your processor has degraded, which means it needs more voltage than before. If I am correct, the solution is to apply a positive voltage offset (+0,125) to the entire CPU, since in Zen2 there is no Curve Optimizer.

I get the feeling that modern processors are not built to last for many years.

I haven't tested my memory with mprime for many hours, but I do use Linux only on this machine for many hours a day, building from source quite often (ramping up all 24 threads at 100%), I use multiple VMs, so it got some real-life testing from daily usage but I never used mprime for an extensive test. This reboot happened not long after using kernel 6.8.1 after upgrading from kernel 6.7, but it may be circumstantial.

I had that same error in the past and I also found a way to reproduce it on my PC 100% of the time, that is why I am so sure it is due to the lack of voltage. Even the log warns you that you are dealing with a hardware error. Unfortunately by the looks of it, your CPU has degraded over time and now requires a bit more voltage than before. Or maybe you upgraded to a new bios recently and the board sends less voltage than before to the CPU. In any case the solution is the same, you must increase the voltage to your CPU.

Hi everyone:
Sorry that I reply to late.
I turn off C-state and PBO from my MB.
Now my system is no problem.

It's very strange.
I kept PBO and C status on for a few years before that.
The problem didn't occur until I recently upgraded my operating system.
My hardwares:
CPU: AMD 3900x
MB: ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (WI-FI)
VGA: AMD RX570
