I honestly think the reason they didn’t need it before was due to the fact that the cores themselves were not fast enough to max out the infinity fabric and now the bottleneck is the fabric it’s more noticeable.

Update to Situation: 

Ran Memtest86 for 4 Pass, before I was only doing 1 pass. This was done using Mestest86 boot USB and not from within Windows. Observation

  1. Pass 1: No Error
  2. Pass 2: No Errors, but at 36% mark for Pass 2 system froze 

Total time the system stayed up was close to 1 hour and 30 minutes

akshaykalia_chd, the long boot time is probably memory training not some fabric problem. Look in your Event Viewer and post a few Critical errors, Details Tab. Are there any errors for your boot device? Do a Clear CMOS and make sure all AMD drivers were downloaded here. What happens when it hangs? Mouse work, KB work, how are they attached? I would suggest you install W11 on a partition on your SATA drive and see if all is well. John.

EDIT: Try a single stick of memory.
