"MSI's BIOS update prevents Ryzen 7000X3D processors from overheating"

Users have reported problems with AMD's Ryzen 7000X3D processors, with some systems failing to boot and one instance of a processor becoming physically deformed. Motherboard maker MSI has released BIOS updates that disallow overvolting features that could give the CPUs more power than they were built to handle, as the damage "may have been caused by abnormal voltage issues." Ryzen 7000X3D processors are set to a lower voltage than regular Ryzen 7000 CPUs by default, but the extra L3 cache can raise temperatures and make the CPU more difficult to cool. Current Ryzen 7000X3D CPU users should install the most recent BIOS update for their motherboards and keep an eye out for new versions that specifically attempt to address this problem.

MSI's BIOS Update Addresses Ryzen 7000X3D CPU Burnout with Voltage Restrictions

MSI has released new firmware updates for its AM5 motherboards to address potential issues with AMD's Ryzen 7000X3D processors being damaged. The new BIOS versions lock down voltage controls for X3D chips, removing support for positive offset voltages and only allowing negative offset voltages. MSI has also restricted overvolting through its MSI Center application. Users are directed to utilize the Enhanced Mode Boost option within the firmware to optimize Precision Boost Overdrive settings without making manual voltage adjustments.
