Thread update: The issue has been resolved. Classic case of not seeing the forest through the trees. . The new G.SKILL ram was defective. . Even having reset cmos many times, the bios was not updating the ram timing for the Kingston ram which uses a 10-10-10-27 timing. Instead even after...

Memtest locked up on the new ram but only after confirming errors on the Gskill ram so at least we can confirm that ram is bad. The original kingston ram tested 4/4 passes on 1 stick and 2/4 passes on the other stick but froze at that point. Just to be sure I retested the stick that passed 4/4...

Thread update. I took some needed time and updated fans after realizing I had 2 faulty and while I was at it purchased and installed a new corsair rm1000e psu. I've been attempting a memtest overnight with 2 sticks of the original ram but the machine is locking up whole testing. I'm...

Hi Roland and thank you for the advise. I recognize this rig is getting old but I'm not quite ready fir a new setup. I'm not a hard-core gamer so even being throttled it is ok for me until then. I do still have the 1070 and I will look into a bios update tonight. I'm always afraid to mess...

I had a bit of time this morning. I used on board gpu and new ram and it locked up as it has been. I swapped the kingston ram out in the paired slots and it did not lock up loading games. I have yet to push it and see. Of note I have the ram installed in the green ram slots. I'll have to...

Also the gpu is rtx not gtx. I just noticed my mistake

I'm a complete noob to overclocking so please forgive my naivety. As of right now I am running the cpu with amd overdrive at 3.08 ghz stable. As soon as the temp hits 60 degrees Celsius od caps the oc. So I know cooling is part of my problem and I will be ordering a water cooler very soon...

http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1744341 This is my cpu-z validation I'm running the machine on the Biostar TA790GX XE v6 auto overclock setting . The v8 and v12 settings won't boot up. I get a message stating something about to many freezups or something when I do. I can do it...
