do you know what delid mean?

 

[Asez23]

do you know what delid mean?

delidding is the act of separating the integrated heat spreader (IHS) from the top of your processor, and then replacing the stock thermal paste the manufacturer has used, with something a little more premium, usually liquid metal or a better thermal paste.

do you?

Check the Temps of your Processor and GPU.
Pull the RAM out and put it in different slot, if there are multiple RAMs, then check it one by one
Update Drivers
Reinstall Windows
Check it without GPU
If issue persist, then check it with another Processor or GPU

This is not good advice for the average user. More likely, than not, a user could end up with a destroyed CPU. This is not something that most users should attempt, and definitely not with a modern AMD CPU.

[Paka000]

its happened 3 times today
now its really irritating and frustrating when my pc just freezes and just turns off like the monitor and keyboard and mouse all go off but the hardware is still on and running all the fans and the rgb

 

[ragnarok0274]

Try reinstalling Windows?
It could be a software issue.

This is often the sign of a heat and/or power issue.

What specific model PSU are you using?

What are your CPU and GPU operating temperatures at idle and under load?

Are you overclocking any devices (CPU, GPU, memory)?

Have you tested your memory for errors (with a tool like memtest)?

The actual model matters. With that information, we can assess whether it may/may not be able of supporting your system. Low quality PSUs, regardless of their rating, can lead to these sorts of issues.

GameMax makes very poor quality PSUs. See here:

I would not use, nor recommend, that product. This could be contributing to your problem, especially powering your GPU.
