As I am in no way experienced with OC a CPU, I just followed Jays instructions from JTC's new video about 5 ways for making your PC faster. I have a Ryzen 7 5800x and I enabled auto OC in Ryzen Master to get the desired performance boost, but after doing that, my PC keeps crashing with a WHEA error. Am I doing something wrong? Should I change some other setting as well?

So I just got done overclocking my GPU (RTX 2070 super) with MSI’s afterburner OC Scanner.
I opened Ryzen Master to overclock my CPU(RYZEN 5 something something?) and selected auto OC and then it said it had to restart, clicked yes then it took me to the « closing apps before restart screen » the only app to close was the task manager. I am now stuck on that screen..
I tried clicking on restart anyway and then it froze, I waited like 10 minutes. Nothing happened. I tried holding the power button, nothing either.
I’m scared, I don’t want to unplug it but what other choice do I have? It’s been like 30 minutes nothing changed I don’t hear my fans running.
What do I do?
Computer Type: Desktop
GPU: RTX 2070 super 8gb
CPU: RYZEN 5?
Motherboard: ASUS something
BIOS Version:
RAM: 16GB
PSU:
Case: ASUS ROG STRIX?
Operating System & Version: WINDOWS 11
GPU Drivers: GEFORCE GAME READY DRIVER a new updated happened right before my problem but I didn’t install it yet
Chipset Drivers:
Background Applications: DISCORD, FIREFOX, steam, Cpu-z, steel series GG, task manager,
Description of Original Problem: stuck on windows restart screen after RYZEN MASTER was set in auto OC and restarted it. Screen is frozen.
Troubleshooting: tried pressing the power button, no effect. Scared to pull the plug…
I got sudden restart issues happening while gaming just like the one in the video and im trying to find the problem so i just need to know if this is normal or not while applying curve optimizer. Note that curve optimizer is not applied after this restart and kernel event 41 and whea 18 processor core erros shows in event viewer, which also exist when it suddenly crashes during gaming or any cpu intensive task. Also this is the only way for the reboot to happen on purpose as i can play for days or even a week without a single crash. This is a newly build pc and the problems started right away. Tried updating bios and chipset and already replaced Psu and mobo

I have a Ryzen 7 5800x and a Aorus Gigabyte B450m pro wifi motherboard, Windows 11. I recently upgraded to the new CPU and have been using it for a couple weeks. I decided to use Ryzen Master to use to auto optimize for the CPU. It took about an hour and I think it blue screened at one point. But when it was complete I hit apply and it went to rest the PC. When it did, the Aorus screen comes up like it it's booting and the blue screens and says it has to restart. When it restarts, it says its going to repair but then crashes again. It just starts doing this over and over. I tried putting the bios into safe mode but that didn't do anything. Please someone help. I'm fairly new to this stuff.
Doing this on mobile so excuse the formatting.
I’ve recently “nuked” my computer, after having issues for a while, and I figured starting completely fresh should help.
And it did! I had a wonderful time doing some easy overlocks/undervolts like turning on EXPO and such. The CPU ran faster and cooler, and off the RAM was doing good too (I think)
But then I downloaded AMD Ryzen Master, and ran the automatic curve optimizer. Now getting it too boot is a real struggle, taking multiple attempts, and usually at least one forceful shutdown… It runs hotter, and with no benefit/speed or increase as far as I can tell
What on earth has happened? I’ve tried resetting the BIOS settings, and that doesn’t seem to have done anything. How can I undo?
And does anyone have any tips for overlocking/undervolting/optimizing that does not bork the computer?
Quick specs: AMD Ryzen 7900X Asus B450 or something Asus 7900 XTX 2x 16GB DDR5 6400MHz Gskill something 1000W Platinum PS from Corsair will correct when I double check, but everything should be listed in a previous post on my profile
