Hello, get ready for a wall of text, since I've tried to the best of my knowledge to fix this, but it continues to happen.
So I bought a Ryzen 7 3800X and a B550 Aorus Elite to upgrade from my intel i5 6600k and msi Z170A gaming pro carbon.
Formatted the pc and installed the new components. PC specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8-Core Processor 3.90 GHz
Motherboard: B550 Aorus Elite
Ram: 4x 4GB DDR4 HyperX Fury
SSD/HDD: Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 500Gb / WDC WDS 120Gb
GPU: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1060 6GB
PSU: Cougar GEC 750W 80+gold (one and a half years old, tops)
Chassis: Corsair Carbide 175R
OS: Windows 10
Monitor: ASUS VP248 / BenQ GL2460
After everything installed, new components and corresponding drivers, my pc started having random restarts. No BDOS, just total blackout and reboot.
Installed HWMonitor to check if it was some sort of temperature or overheating making the system trigger the restart. Nothing was, or even got above 80ºC.
After some searching and reinstalling stuff , sent the new components back to the shop for review. Nothing , according to them , everything was working as intended.
Came back home and reinstalled everything. This time really took my time installing all drivers correctly and doing every step to prevent issues.
Now the pc doesn't blackout or restart, it simply freezes. With apparently no pattern to it, meaning , i can be playing a high memory/graphic usage game and it happens, so it does when i'm just browsing youtube with a couple more tabs open on chrome.
Also, it can happen after 4or more hours of usage , and the same after 10 min or so.
Checked event viewer and the error logs are as follows, by order of appearance:
- Session "OWEtKernelLogger" failed to start with the following error: 0xC0000022
- The previous system shutdown at 08:41:25 on 06/10/2021 was unexpected.
- (Critical) The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
- Audit events have been dropped by the transport.
- Error setting traits on Provider {8444a4fb-d8d3-4f38-84f8-89960a1ef12f}. Error: 0xC0000001
What i've done so far to try to fix it:
Clean install of all the windows updates, chipset and BIOS updates.
Clean install of NVIDIA drivers using DDU to completely clear all previous info and reinstall with new from NVIDIA website.
Adjusting the AMD power settings to High Performance.
Adjusting CPU power consuption to minimum to 5%.
Ran a PSU Calculator to figure if it was a power issue, says that with my components id' need a 380W PSU. Mine is 750W 80+Gold.
Heck, I even changed the extension cord where it all was plugged to a new one.
If someone could please help me , i would deeply appreciate it.
PS: sorry for any misspellings or anything, as english aint my 1st language.
