There are multiple reports above that disabling package C6 is not the
same as setting typical current in Bios. ISTR there is even a report
that setting typical current did not disable C6 for that particular
bios. The theory that this power bug is related to motherboard is
gaining prominence, because different motherboards seem to have
different tweaks for "typical current". If only AMD would just tell us
what is going on.

Meanwhile, I am more than content with my Ryzen setup now that it is
apparently stable, but discontented with AMDs lack of disclosure. Not to
the point of swearing off AMD, but it got close.
