Hi,
Wondering if anyone has any insights about issues I’m having with my computer crashing when playing games and sometimes when running regular applications. Typically the monitor will go black and lose connection and restart. Also sometimes the computer wont post after this happens. If I switch out the Ram in the dImm slots that resolves it for running the computer normally, but not playing games.
I initially had similar issues and replaced the ram and got a new kit. That seemed to have fixed it for a few months but it’s back now.
Right now I can play games about 5 to 10 minutes before the screen turns black and I have to restart.
I updated the bios and ran memtest on the ram and didn’t get any errors. Bios update didn't fix issues.
My CPU has a small overclock and my videocard isn't overclocked. Ive had issues before when ive overclocked those too much, but the errors those give me are different than the ones im getting now.
I’m thinking it’s the motherboard and maybe the dimm slots are bad. Just checking if anyone else has ideas before buying a new one.
Specs:
Asus prime z390-a lga 1151
I7 9700k
Corsair vengeance lpx 32gb 2x16 ddr4 3600
Corsair Professional Series Gold AX1200 Watt Power Supply (had since 2012)
Dual Monitors - 27 inch 1440p ASUS and a AGON 27 inch 1440p
GeForce 3080TI
