    Question Possible bad iGPU on Ryzen 5 2400G?

    Update: Increasing the voltage stopped OCCT from crashing, but the number of errors went to ~500 total. This is probably damaged.

    Question Possible bad iGPU on Ryzen 5 2400G?

    I have had a Ryzen 5 2400G for 2 years now and lately I've been experiencing crashes lately, only on "heavy games." Watch Dogs started crashing for me last week and so does Watch Dogs 2. {Driver Timeouts} Brawlhalla (A 2D Platformer game that's light on resources runs fine.) I ran OCCT an hour...

    [SOLVED] Need help using two audio inputs on a computer.

    Hi everyone! So, what I require is rather basic: I attend piano classes on my PC.

    [SOLVED] NVIDIA 550ti reaching 95c ?

    Question USB ports keep randomly disconnecting and reconnecting

    I had this same problem when I used a trash PSU, went away once I switched to a CX550. List your PSU please. Also, I've had this problem when I turned on heavy loads on the same line as a PC. It may be power related is what I'm saying.

    [SOLVED] Severe frame drops on unfocused windows

    Edit: Since you mentioned that this GPU is from an old PC and the old PC had no such issues; I'd not mark the GPU as a problem just yet.

    [SOLVED] Severe frame drops on unfocused windows
