PC specs
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3000MH
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600
GPU: GTX Nvidia 1050ti
Mobo: Asus Prime B4050M-A
PSU: Corsair CX750M
SSD: Crucial MX500
So recently I bought a new ryzen 5, new ram and mobo and replaced them all with the old devices. For a month, my PC worked fined. Played games and did other stuff perfectly. Suddenly, my monitor turned off randomly while playing along with my keyboard, forcing me to turn it off by force with the power button. I used the Prime95 stress test to check my ram and cpu, the monitor goes off immediately when the test starts. I took it to a PC repair shop. They've so far updated every driver and bios. The temperatures are fine. The computer repair guy tried swapping the GPU, Ram,Monitor, SSD, PSU and the problem persisted. Then the repair guy swapped the cpu with a ryzen 3 and the problem stopped, the PC successfully stressed test Prime95. He said I probably have a faulty cpu although it is very rare. Now the crash is happening more frequently, even when not gaming. Is a faulty cpu the answer or can it be something else? I'm requesting an RMA from AMD but in the meantime I want to make sure I have a faulty CPU. Any advice would help thanks.
