Ubuntu 20.4 GeForce GT 710 4port HDMI freeze on idle

Since the system is completely freezing, this rather points to a cpu/mainboard issue. Google gave me a hint this isn’t exactly uncommon owith 3X00 cpus but the solution is unclear, some solved it by

  • setting a fixed cpu clock multiplier instead of auto
  • disabling csm in bios and reinstalling in efi mode
  • disabling c-states in bios
    Of course, all overcllocking settings should be disabled, for cpu and memory.
    Since the system is completely freezing it can’t log anything so it’s a guessing game, unfortunately.
