--- Comment #3 from Artem S. Tashkinov (aros@gmx.com) ---
amd-pstate has been the default CPU driver for quite some time now in many
distros and your report is the first of this kind. And since most Linux users
use AMD CPUs it becomes even more bizarre.

I still smell something is wrong with your setup hardware wise only I don't
understand what exactly.

What other options I can think of:

1. CPU dies sometimes can be faulty as well. This is extremely unlikely but
does happen.
2. Thermal paste/CPU cooler issues.
3. PSU issues.

I'm quite sure replacing the CPU is not on your mind yet, but I'd at least make
sure that the thermal paste is applied properly (and you've not forgotten to
remove the plastic for your cooler) and that the PSU CPU power connector is
attached properly.

And then if you're keen to check thermal paste application, please remove the
die from the motherboard socket and check that all the CPU pins are intact.

Again, I'm 99.999% sure it's a hardware issue.

I'll CC Mario because he knows a lot more about AMD hardware, so probably he
could add something.
