so I've spent the last 2 weeks trying to fix this piece of junk and I've had no success. its very slow and freezes consistently, sometimes it will blue screen with the message IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL or MEMORY MANAGEMENT i have reinstalled windows, tested my ram in memtest86 3 times with no problems. im out of ideas and pretty soon i'm just going to smash it.


my POS build,
ryzen 1600
16gb corsair vengeance 3000mhz ram
msi tomahawk b350 motherboard
geforce 1050 ti
256gb SSD

#1 - make sure your BIOS is updated to latest version

#2 - try running the RAM at stock 2133 without applying any XMP profile

#3 - Run it with default BIOS settings in general. Don't tweak anything at all and see if its stable

#4 - Make sure all drivers are installed in windows for your hardware. Simply go in to Device Manager and make sure there's nothing with an exclamation point on it

#5 - Run ALL windows updates available

If all this is done then there's likely some hardware issue going on. I get that you're frustrated but custom builds don't always just plug and play.
