    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    Just in case anyone comes here like I did with a similar problem looking for a solution, know that my temps kept getting worse so I decided to replace the CPU cooler completely. In removing the old cooler, I noticed the thermal paste was extremely poor and almost non-existent in the center of...

    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    Thank you (and everyone else) for their input. I honestly don't think I would've ever posted here or been as concerned if I had not updated HWiNFO and saw that PRD setting and the readings that reported it to be off. I've since found a GamerNexus video that mentions this specific thread and even...

    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    Thank you Zach, for the detailed descriptions of what each reading does. That helped more than even the pop-up window in the program itself and each one is very close during a stress test. This build is actually a CyberPowerPC that I got at close out a couple years ago...paid less for the...

    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    So you think it would be a good idea to remove cooler and reapply thermal paste and/or replace cooler? Or, let it be since temps are still within acceptable range outside of stress testing? I forgot this CPU cooler on this particular system is not the stock cooler, it's actually a Cooler Master...

    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    My motherboard is currently reporting an average of 33C with a max of 37C. Average room temp during this time was 26C. This room does get hot and after adjusting external room fans to blow on the case, my CPU average temp over the past 12hrs is 36C (CPU CCD1). My GPU average is 31C. These idle...

    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    Just ran it again and when the PRD is 47.3% the others are as follows: CPU PPT 53.171W CPU PPT Limit 60.4% I have not tried putting the 5700 back in, but I suppose I can when I have some extra time just to see. Something else I've noticed is the spikes have become much more frequent and more...

    IMPORTANT Explaining the AMD Ryzen "Power Reporting Deviation" -metric in HWiNFO

    So I just upgraded my GPU from a 5700 (non-XT) to a 3070FE and after installing it and all drivers, I noticed my CPU idle temps and load temps increased dramatically. My CPU is a 3700X with stock cooler, mobo is a B550AM Gaming, and the GPU is the only thing that has changed in my system. No...
