To start this off, I have 2 monitors and a TV above putting me at 3 displays. Maybe this information can be useful but whenever my PC crashes at ANYTIME, (it can be just browsing twitter or on steam workshop/Discord) both of my monitors go black, and the top TV display goes green then my all my displays turn off after a second or two.
The audio does not keep playing, the PC basically loses all video and audio, but it stays on as all my peripherals and interior lighting (fans/cpu aio/gpu/ram) stay on.
There is a light that turns on, on my motherboard. Its like an orange/amber light that blinks every second. I did look this up and it is said to be a Memory/RAM problem.
I said okay, then maybe I just have to reseat my memory and it'll be fixed. I tried, and no dice. Still crashed with the same process of black/green screens, then locking until i hold down the power button or hitting the reset button.
I thought to myself, okay I recently added an extra 2 sticks of RAM to my system so maybe 1 of them is faulty. I removed 2 sticks and continued as normal, still crashed. I figured one of those two were faulty so i removed them, and replaced them with the other 2 i had taken out initially and it still crashed.
Now I'm starting to wonder if it even is a memory problem or its one of the slots that is just messed up and not reading the memory correctly. I've had this problem persisting for nearly a year now and I can't tell you how frustrating it is to not be able to figure this one out unless I buy a whole new motherboard and test it with that which is what I believe could potentially give me answers but I just wouldn't want to waste the cash and time.
I've also tried checking the Event Viewer to see if I can get some extra information but all it tells me is that there was an "Unexpected PC shutdown".
The Internet from other problems, have said that if you even have 1 green screen, it could be a graphical problem dealing with the GPU. I had only bought this last year but I wonder if its already being weird.
System setup goes as follows.
Ryzen 7 2700x
RX 5700 XT Powercolor Red Devil
32GBs of Corsair Vengeance RBG Pro
Asus ROG strix B450-F
EVGA Supernova 750w G3 PSU
WD Black 1TB M.2 SSD
Seagate 2TB HDD
Windows 10
