So as an update - I reseated the card and replugged the power cable and its been stable since. Will update if the problem recurs.

Oddly I can play league just fine (knock on wood), as well as like PGA 2k23, and War Thunder, all maxxed settings 4k, no problems. But god forbid I launch Battle Bit or play more than 40 minutes of Baldurs Gate 3.

Not well. Disabling EXPO actually caused more problems to come up - games caused black screen almost immediately if anything remotely intensive comes up. PBO didn't seem to have much impact though.

Its a bit late and I was in middle of some work so I'll get to it tomorrow and update here then.

Come to think of it, I did recently enable PBO, but I had been using the EXPO profile since last December without issue. I'll give EXPO off a shot, or one of the other profiles, and try turning PBO back off.

Hello, I'm encountering a perplexing black screen issue that primarily occurs during or shortly after gaming sessions. While I've run numerous diagnostics and tests, I'm still without a solution and am seeking your expertise. System Specifications: - GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 - CPU: AMD...

I replaced both the CPU and Motherboard with copies and now we're cool and smooth in Windows 11 Pro. New Mobo was already on latest bios version, so nothing needed there. As a side note, my 4TB Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus-G was also indeed broken, its being RMA'd.

I want to add, I have my own thread on here for similar issues to everyone in this thread, constant BSOD with all different hardware replaced except for CPU and motherboard. I'm going to try another mb and CPU next weekend when they arrive to see if that fixes things, I've seen several posts on...

Im really considering it.

Had a BSOD on this run: Link here BIOS is F5, 2 M.2 Installed. Maybe this is just a driver issue though for this BSOD? Let me know if someone can analyze.

Update: I restarted my PC, and lost video output. I could get video output from iGPU and boot to windows there, but obviously I want my GPU to work. So I tried updating bios to F6c, this broke things horribly. I downgraded to F5, and its working now. I even get GPU output again. But, I think...

I installed a good drive in the 3rd M.2 slot and all is fine so far. In fact, for the first time, my mobo did not fail to show my drive or gpu as installed, and while my gpu is running PCIE 5.0 x8 instead of x16 as expected, everything is fine right now. This is great. ill update if anything...

I put the new drive that we suspect is causing the issue into my old PC that I know has no issues, and I think we found the problem. The new drive first of all was found in disk manager as a RAW data drive, so I deleted the volume and tried to create a simple volume without quick format, so...

Well, its a good question, and I asked myself that today as well. I have 4x M.2 drives, 3x of them I know for a fact work perfectly fine, as I have since put 2x back inside my old PC and am typing this response on that PC right now. They report as healthy drives with between 98%-100% of life...

So I installed a second M.2, and things were fine. I could install games and run them just fine, and there were no issues. So, after a couple of hours playing games and generally enjoying my PC at the most stable its been since I got it, I decided I would risk it and install another M.2 drive...
