Hi, for the past couple of months, my pc has been randomly freezing while gaming, it completely hangs, no inputs work, and the audio still plays but does not loop. Then recently in the last few weeks, I have been getting bsods also, as well as the original crash without bsod. Memory management and critical structure corruption were the two bsods i got.
After spending the last month or so searching forums and troubleshooting I came to the conclusion that my ram was the culprit. And after running memtest it came up with hundreds of errors. I replaced the ram today and within 5 minutes of playing world of warcraft it crashed again in the same manner it always does. Im completely at a loss now as to what to do.
My pc ran for 3 years without any issues and only in the past few months these problems came about.
My specs are as follows:
Ryzen 2700x (no OC)
16gb (2x8) G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3200mhz CL16
ASUS ROG STRIX F-Gaming x470
EVGA 1080Ti FTW3
Corsair RM650x
Also on another note, the new ram i just bought will not post at its rated speed. It gets to the bios but wont boot to the OS, I had to underclock by 200mhz. But the old faulty ram does. Same model, same speed, same timings. Makes absolutely no sense to me and I have no clue if its related to the crashing issue or not.
