    Solved Is auto 1.5v soc safe for ryzen 3800x?

    im sorry for taking your time reading this turns out i was using a out of date HWinfo and it was mixing up my cpu voltage with my soc voltage and confusing the crap out of me. feel free to remove this post or keep it for any other idiots like myself.

    Solved Is auto 1.5v soc safe for ryzen 3800x?

    im sure if someone explains to me what that second soc voltage number really means then it will probably solve this. then i can feel better about freaking out over what is probably nothing.

    Solved Is auto 1.5v soc safe for ryzen 3800x?

    I just got a 3800x with asus x570 tuf board. i tried lowering the soc voltage to 1 volt then i logged in to see that hwinfo is reading 1.4v instead of the 1.3v i was reading earlier. every other setting is stock/auto. i then reloaded the optimized defaults of the motherboard and logged back in...

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    just close it. i said i installed the INF which is the driver for the SM Bus Controller but it did not fix the volume mixer. instead of trying to fix it im just gonna live with the broken volume mixer i fear trying to fix it might lead to more work than what it is worth.

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    Im gonna assume that we can call this "solved" even though volume mixer is broken i can hear audio now and the quality seems the same. I think i would need a clean install of windows to fix whatever happened because i don't save restore points or anything. Ill make another thread if and when the...

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    I was hoping that after hours of working through this i might have missed something but i never in my life seen the volume mixer break even after reboot. I wonder if i will lose audio for good next time i get a blue screen.

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    no exclamations besides the "SM Bus Controller" and i think that isn't related. i can send another pic but it would be pointless. i think the blue screen may have broken something within windows. i feel like this pc has had another leg shot off but its still fighting.

    the electric storm and ethernet failure was last year so i do not think it is related.

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    The reason i have 2 ethernet lan devices is because the pc was hit by static electricity after a lightning storm and the internet died on the motherboard. probably should have mentioned that before. anyways here is another picture showing that the speaker is getting audio but the volume mixer is...

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    The audio is functioning again it fixed itself after i plugged in a second headphone into the second audio jack. i guess that reset the selected audio output but oddly the green bar on the volume mixer is still not working even though i can now hear the audio.

    Solved Blue Screen Broke My Audio.

    I had a bluescreen while i was away from my pc came back to the "start windows normally" option but thought nothing of it. Once logged in i noticed that no audio was working. the sound option in device manager shows the green bar moving as if audio is being played but when i go to the volume...
