[SOLVED] Dream PC Build has SEVERE crashing problems

[Coaxy85]

Firstly here's my build.

CPU: Ryzen 7 2700x
MOBO: Asus Prime X470-Pro ATX AM4
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 3200mHz (Two 8 gig sticks)
SSD: Samsung Evo 500 gigs
HDD: Seagate Barracuda Compute 2 TB
GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB Black
PSU: Cooler Master MWE Gold 650 Watt 80+ Gold Certified

So basically, I'm dealing with constant crashes on every single game my pc tries to run. Sometimes they even happen in simpler games like GMod. My PC also sometimes blue screens. I don't run graphics higher than what the games give to me by default when they benchmark my system automatically when I first run it. When games do run, the frames are nice, and there is no graphical tearing. It all seems to be going well until the game crashes. On modern titles such as Squad and Modern Warfare, I can only reliably play for about 10 minutes before I get booted back to my dashboard if I am lucky to even see my dashboard and not a black screen. I've tried just about every thing I can think of in an attempt of trying to make my computer stop crashing. In my BIOS everything is fine, all my ram is detected and are at the right speed, both my drives are detected and their health is fine( I checked previously), and all my drivers are up to date. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I don't know where to go from here.

It still won't help solve your issue having your applications and your O.S on two different storage devices though. Which anti-virus programs do you have installed and how many?

I only have windows defender, the antivirus that comes with the os

Ok, you know what, you said before that your computer reported it ran out of video memory. I didn't think it would cause your games to close, but I was wrong. If the GPU doesn't know what it wants to do with a peice of data because it ran out of vram, it will definitely cause some issues. Hitman 2 has this feature called 'overrided memory safeguard', and its specifically meant for GPU's with vram of 4 gbs or less. You only override the safeguard if you have more than 4 gigs. What does your vram usage stats say while running a game? If its running out of memory, then you may be running your games on settings higher than it can handle, and it might crash like Hitman 2 did to me. What resolution are playing on? Try lowering your resolution and texture settings in the game menu and see if that works.

I play on 1080 and my gpu has 8gigs of Vram. I don't play games on super high graphics. However, lowering the graphics does help sometimes. I usually only use about 5 to 6 gigs of vram with the settings I use

Try overclocking the vram clock speed. I overclock mines on all my games as a best practice.

i hope you fix your issue :/ i also built my gaming pc without any help at all and i was really excited but it turned out to have some issues that turned me down. hopefully it isn't a hardware problem and you will be able to fix it easily, good luck

He would have to run some stress tests, but he already ran one and it came back clean.

Hey has this been fixed? I had the exact same issue, the issue for me was overclocking the ram to anything above 2933 MHz, didn't know beforehand but bought 2 sticks of ram that ran at 3200 MHz, however the CPU is apparently only designed for 2933 MHz.

Sorry I haven't replied to this thread, my family went on vacation and I was away from my computer, but I am still having problems with my pc, it can't even join a game in post scriptum

Thank you so much, this seems to have done the trick
