I swapped GPUs and put in a new PSU and the problem stopped, so I've got a feeling my old 3070 has bitten the dust -- unlucky I'm going to give it to my brother since he's on a 2070 currently and see if he has similar issues with it, if not, lucky him :) I should have isolated the components...

Might be a good call, Im not noticing any issues in thermals with sustained gaming. I have noticed it crashed roughly 4hrs, maybe a bit longer, following a fresh boot. Wonder if the RAMs just loading itself up and then shitting out over those 4hrs. RAM is relatively cheap so would be nice if...

Hello all, Over the last 3-4 days my PC has been locking up. It happened once and I thought nothing of it but it's becoming increasingly more frequent. See specs at the bottom of my post, though I don't think they're particularly relevant. Basically my system keeps locking up. Screens go black...

Well I guess that about does it then. Thank you so so so much for all your responses. After spending what I spent on this set up and having that kind of performance, fixing this problem has taken such a load off my mind. I couldn't get over how smooth actually gaming at a STEADY 144fps/144hz...

Okay so I did a fresh install of windows as well as completely reformating my SSD to wipe it clean... ....and so far? SUCCESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! My bios remained up to date as expected. I let windows do all of it's available updates. I updated my chipset drivers from the Gigabyte...

No worries! I had figured we were reaching that point anyways. I definitely appreciate all your help over the past week or so. I’m going to reinstall windows/format my SSD in an hour or so and if THAT doesn’t work I suppose I’ll call Nvidia for an RMA. Again, thanks so much and If you think...

So I opted for a Quick Scan using Windows Defender and it found nothing. I haven't tried Malwarebytes just yet but I'll try that here shortly. After switching My ram to the channels labeled 3 and 4 on my motherboard rather than the ones labeled 1 and 2. HWiNFO is now showing that my RAM is...

Gotcha, I actually started a full scan using Windows Defender/Windows Protection so I'll try the switching the RAM and running Unigine right after this finishes up in a few hours! Is it possibly a Motherboard issue? I hate to upgrade to a new motherboard when the AMD 5000 series has basically...

That is strange, like I was saying my RAM are (from left to right AWAY from the CPU) in the 2nd and 4th slots. But the the slots are actually labeled on the motherboard as such [4] [*2*] [3] [*1*] so technically they are in the correct channels as far as what this manual is telling me...

Okay so this will be somewhat tedious post so I'm going to break it up into two: This post, being the first, will be readings of my hardware after my PC had been running and I had been gaming on for like 4-5 hours if not longer (typically when the stutter becomes utterly unbearable) The next...

I reseated my GPU and unplugged/replugged all power cables with no effect. Also the GPU is in fact in the top PCIE slot closest to CPU. My RAM has been sat and re-sat a few times and is in slots "2" and "4" as you would say. It looks like this [CPU] [empty] [RAM] [empty] [RAM] -- so slots 2...

First a link to my results: https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/34279759 I have crystalmark and I don't think it said I had any issues with my SSD when I ran it last though I could be wrong, I'll give it another shot some other time -- especially if you dont think it's related to my GPU or...

Hey Dotas! Thanks for being so current and responsive with me, it seriously means a LOT. So I had some issues with booting Windows in Safe Mode but eventually worked it out -- ran DDU, reinstalled newest Nvidia drivers and booted up Unigine Heaven as it's kind of been the standard in this...

Nice, I'll try out DDU in the next few days to start before trying a full re-install of Windows then. I don't think I'd be able to move the GPU to another system to be honest. I'm one of a few PC gamers that I know, most of my friends are console users. As far as actual instances of games...
