AMD Ryzen 7 5700 X loses performance

Hello everyone! Im here because my amd ryzen 7 5700x cpu is dying I guess. In the last few months I have very bad experience.

When I play a game, my processor's performance drops to the worst levels as you can see in the video.

PC specs: 

Motherboard: ASRock B550M-HDV

SSD:  SPCC M.2 PCIe SSD

GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060 TI

RAM: g.skill aegis 16gb kit 3200 mhz ddr4

PSU: Zalman ZM600-LXII

 

I tried to update the bios on my motherboard, reset the CMOS, but it didn't help. I still have the same performance.

I'll link a showcase video about the issue.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tju-AA2maJE 

Thanks for the help. Have a nice day.

Your CPU isn't dying, it's fully loaded in game. You're hitting 100% PPT power limit (which is set at 76W to make the 5700X a 65W TDP chip) and running 4GHz+ across all eight cores.

What is your game resolution and quality set at? Are you running these low on purpose to try and maximize FPS?

Are you running any other processes while gaming? Have you tried closing other unneeded apps while gaming?

Increasing the PPT limit could raise the clock speed a bit (at the cost of increased temps) but looking at that motherboard it isn't built to handle it. (only 4+2 phase power, no heatsinks and a single 4-pin CPU connector) So your best bet is to reduce the load on your CPU.
