    Motherboard is a Gigabyte B450 Aorus M. It's fully updated and support for this particular CPU is explicitly listed in a past revision of the mobo firmware.

    Manual doesn't list any specific CPU settings but their website says stepping A0, and that's what the defaults were setting. Also I got "core speed: 400 MHz", "multiplier: x 4.0 (14-36)".

    even some normal batch cpus might sometimes require a bit more (or less) juice or a system tweak

    What does that involve? I wouldn't know where to begin changing voltages or other parameters. I suspect I shouldn't just faff about in the BIOS and hope for the best. 😕

    No, I would search for your motherboard model and forums to see what situations might match yours so that you might glean something useful as far as settings go. A quick check revealed nothing useful that stands out to me. Resetting all electrical connections was the lone useful tip. (The reddit link blocked me, lol. Fine) Perhaps more detailed (or different) search terms would produce better results.

    I think you've taken the right steps to this point. Another CPU to test with would prove useful (though your original should suffice). Or another board to test this CPU in. Perhaps the shop you procured this one from has one or the other? Otherwise, I would pursue replacement.

      Honestly I'll just send it back at this point. I have kernel panics that point to at least two of the cores being bad. Which would explain the sporadic nature of the errors. Also why memcheck ran fine because it only uses the first core by default. Too bad I haven't thought about it when running memtest because it lets you select cores explicitly.
