    Question What's the best way to check if your CPU is faulty besides replacing it ?

    When I meant closest, I mean closest of the two recommended for a dual stick configuration. I did check the manual and I'm using only those two slots. I did try the other two out of curiosity and it would turn on and off again on a loop. The CPU is brand new but unfortunately it's been over a...

    Question What's the best way to check if your CPU is faulty besides replacing it ?

    Yes, they were both always in the correct slots

    Question What's the best way to check if your CPU is faulty besides replacing it ?

    This all started happening once I upgraded the CPU so could it be possible it was broken from the start? Also, I already replaced the motherboard. Unless I am the unluckiest person in the world, it would be weird if two different mobos had the exact same problem Another update, I checked the...

    Question What's the best way to check if your CPU is faulty besides replacing it ?

    I don't have any spare parts besides the components I already replaced unfortunately. And yeah frankly I don't know what exactly they're doing. I suggested swapping out components but I have no idea if they did. I repeatedly mentioned the program I used to reproduce the crash too. I already...

    Question What's the best way to check if your CPU is faulty besides replacing it ?

    Temperatures are fine, at the absolute most it goes to 80-85 Celsius but only when I run programs like Cinebench, it doesn't reach that while gaming. As for voltages which ones do you mean? I can post some screenshots of the HWinfo file but there are way too may categories.

    Question What's the best way to check if your CPU is faulty besides replacing it ?

    My PC has been randomly rebooting for months now, ever since I upgraded my CPU. The first months I would get a solid green screen, now it remains black for a few seconds then restarts. I have replaced both SSD, Motherboard and PSU. I do not have any spare parts to try out and I can't afford to...

    These are my current specs: Asus Tuf b550 Wifi II (used to be Gigabyte x370 Gaming k7) 16GB G SKill TridentZ RAM AMD Radeon 5600XT Ryzen 5 5500 (used to be Ryzen 5 1600) Cooler Master MWE Gold v2 650w (used to be an EVGA Gold rated, not sure which model but it was also 650W) Both drives are...

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    These are a few columns I found with certain difference in numbers. Again, no clue what any of this means or if it's normal or not. Let me know if you need other specific values. View: https://imgur.com/a/E1tgHwI

    Does this link work? https://limewire.com/d/pfNnD#Ng1mB36QYi

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    It's a CSV file. It logged all the 'sensors' info in HWInfo, up until when it crashed. Again, not sure if it even recorded anything. What's the best site to upload it? I don't believe I can do that directly on this site.

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    Ran both DISM and scannow. No errors were detected this time. I remember months ago scannow did detect some errors and fixed them, but that didn't help. It was a brand new install and I ended up reinstalling Windows yet again. Event viewer seems to give even less info that before, and there are...

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    It's the most reliable way I found to reproduce the crash. Otherwise it could take days before it happens again. I need the crash dump because I cannot afford to buy another component hoping it fixes it. I do have the HWinfo file which was logging things in the background until it crashed. But I...

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    Cool, so I check the "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives"? It was unchecked before so hopefully this time... Managed to make it crash twice now with Burnintest. I noticed it usually reboots before the 5 minute mark. If it goes past that the test will complete like normal. I...

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    Okay, found the option to change page file size I believe. Decided to run BurninTest for the millionth time, crashed within 2 minutes. No dump file again. Decided to change the directory back to the default one (System Root- Memory.dmp) and deleted both registry entries I added so now it's back...

    Question I keep getting a black screen and reboot even after swapping out several components

    Right, so any way I can make the page file space bigger? Or would it work if I simply chose a smaller type of memory dump? In that case I'm not sure it would give me enough info. I already tested both sticks individually. No errors. And yes both were in the correct slots. I realized both were...
