Guys, pc's been fine for 3+ months, suddenly, when turning on today I saw couple of small boxes flashing on desktop intermittently, so I opened Witcher 3 to see if it's fine, game crashed, event viewer showed nvlddmkm 153 error and display driver recovery msg, screen seemed to be 60 instead of...

Yeap, motherboard is a hassle, But, no I haven't removed the CPU yet, I have already placed an order for a 5700x and ram sticks, once it arrives I will have to swap anyway, I will check for and post here. I can try and do that, but the PSU is only 2 months old, I just bought it along with the...

In summary, unless it happens consistently enough for me to swap and test I have no way of narrowing it down, Yeah?

Haha, Unfortunately I don't. I did run SFC a little while ago, didn't find anything. I was planning to change my cpu to a 5700x anyway, short of the current pc consistently failing to boot I am not sure swapping components will tell me what the root cause is right away I guess. The fact that the...

Yeah, I never enabled PBO or even tried overlooking with both my 3600xs and yeah I ran memtest last month foru passes and everything came out fine.

Also, wanted to add, I played the same game for 3 hrs continuously without issue. I am at a loss here.

BIOS updated, now we wait, or is there anything I can do to find what the issue is?

Looks like there has been a bios update on 30th April 25, it was in beta a month back, anyway, I will install that just to be sure. But I have a feeling it is either the cpu or motherboard failing. Any inputs?

Noted, I am on the latest stable BIOS, psu is barely 2 months old, I am at a point where swapping cpus is not going to confirm what the issue is as the pc is working fine again, been playing rhe same game again for a while now. Not sure where to go from here? I will be able to figure it out if...

Hi All, My PC specs are in the signature. So, I've had some instabilities with the pc intermittently for a while now. Today, all of a sudden the pc crashed and restarted when playing bf1, I go open event viewer right away and the pc freezes, no response but display was there, just frozen, had...

Alright, just ran 4 passes memtest 86, passed, don't know what to do from here guys.

Ran the windows memory diagnostic, it came up clean, I can probably run memtest to be sure. What could have been the cause guys, system's been stable after the BSOD, could it just be drivers corruption?

Quick update guys, ran occt standard 3d for an hr, no issues again. What is happening? Could it just be the ram?

Just wanted to add, the artifacts I saw looked like ram artifacting when checking google.
