RYZEN 7000 ▀ POWER RELATED ISSUES ON WINDOWS 7

Messing around with the recently purchased Ryzen 7700 i ran into some rather annoying power related problems.
The computer and monitor would go into sleep mode after about 5 minutes, despite the appropriate power settings in
the Control Panel and third party software such as Process Lasso and Park Control being residential in memory.

I had to break my head to get out of this situation and traditionally i am sharing with you the solution I found.

Modern UEFI bios is a mess, needed settings scattered around without any logic or ergonomics in mind, so
it is quite easy to get lost in overwhelming amount of settings.

Here is a list of BIOS settings which can help you to solve similar problems in the future:

• ErP ready
• Global C-state Control
• Power Supply Idle Control

Turn them off for your own good.
Power Supply Idle Control should be set in Low Current Idle state.

Global C-state Control & Power Supply Idle Control settings located here:

OVERCLOCKING ► ADVANCED CPU CONFIGURATION ► AMD CBS

In some rare case boot process can stuck on BIOS logo screen, in those cases disable Resizable BAR in BIOS.

To disable hibernation type in a command line with administrative privileges:

powercfg.exe /hibernate off 

I’ll update the note if i’ll find anything important.
From your side, if you find out new stuff [drop me a line] .

And one more thing, expect to see 7950X retro benchmarks in a month or so.
