I recently upgraded my CPU to a R9 5950x and after the swap my CPU will after about 5 seconds of playing any game will drop HARD with large frame drops and audio stuttering and continue to do so every couple seconds.

I have tested swapping BIOS version/resetCMOS/turning on PBO and swapping to XML in attempts to remedy but the only thing that has seemed to work so far is ECO mode but to me feels to defeat the purpose of purchasing a CPU upgrade

Specs are as follows

MOBO: B450MH

CPU: R9 5950x

GPU: 3060ti

PSU: AGT 850w

Please assist
