[SOLVED] [Help] New build BSOD/Black Screens

[khairalla.t]

Just built my PC last night. It worked well all night and this morning. CPU temps @ 45-55, GPU @ 55-65 in various games (mh, RL, fornite)



Here's my build. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/tagmct/saved/s7VRJx



Earlier today, it started with BSOD, can't recall all the error codes one of them was "irql not less or equal." Then I would get a black screen on boot even though the PC would be on. I think I narrowed it down to 1 faulty RAM Stick but wanted to confirm my conclusion, here's how i trouble shot this.



Reinstall Direct X/GPU drivers. Still issues

Reinstall various drivers using driver pack. Still issues

Realized XMP profile wasnt enabled so i enabled it. Still issues

Unplug GPU and use CPU DVI Port to play games. Still issues (BSOD).

Unplug HDD and GPU. Still issues (black screen now)

Unplug HDD, GPU and 1 RAM stick (stick 1). System works (played a game briefly)

Plug in HDD and GPU while same RAM stick is on. System works

Plug in HDD, GPU and both RAM. Issues back (black screen)

Unplug other RAM stick (stick 2). System works.

Unplug both RAMs and plug in only stick 2. (Black screen)

Unplug stick 2 and plug stick 1 into other slot. System works, played for 30min and no issues.



Should try to replace my RAM sticks?

if you got other memory you can try to replace, if you have to buy new RAM its better to do a check first on your ram
use this https://www.memtest86.com/ or use the built in Windows Memory Diagnostic
that will tell you if your RAM is the problem.
i recommend memtest over windows test but if there are big problems on the RAM both should detect it.

dear lord thank you for you PCPartpicker now i can see what you have and check the part in more detail.
looks like a RMA would be in place, Contact the seller ask for return or replacment if he doesnt want to sue them and then contact crossair for RMA too (Crossair usualy accepts RMA if the device is new, they changed my leaky h100x for a new one they didnt have any h100x in stock so they sent me h100i pro)
