Question PC slows down a huge margin after a few hours

[blyscyk]

Basically the issue is, when i run my pc for a longer time after a few hours it just slows down an insane amount. Like, i just dont understand it at all. Basically becomes unusable and i have to restart it. The only weird thing that i noticed is that my ryzen 5 5600x has very high usage spikes when that happens.

Buut ive had the same exact issue on my old i7-2600 dell too (with a HDD), my friends have this issue aswell sometimes, but i have no idea what this is caused by at all

So pro technicians or someone pls help

Sounds like your pc might be underclocking due to overheating.

Install HWmonitor and perform a stress test (or play some games) and send a screenshot across of the temps (CPU, GPU, Motherboard)

nope, i know my temperatures very well. in games CPU never goes above 70c, under the most heavy stress tests (cinebench,prime95) it only goes up to 85c maximum (the max temperature for the ryzen 5 5600x is 95c)
ram is 40c under max load, gpu is 70c under the most heavy gpu tasks (i dont think thats bad for a 3060 ti)

to monitor temperatures i use argus monitor and OCCT both show the same temps

also i use an AIO for my cpu, the cpu is overclocked to 4.7GHz 1.35v so a little bit hotter than stock but nothing too bad. it is stable though, cinebench scores are always the same, never saw an bluescreen either, prime95 was running for over 6 hours aswell without any issues

i havent noticed anything downclocking, the cpu was at 4.7GHz constantly while this happened.

now, i think the problem might be the XMP profile, the ram i have is Corsair Vengeance SL Pro 16GB 2x8 3600MHz CL18. It ain't good ram at all, i tried ocing to CL16 1.4v and instant bsod, therefore the ram is garbage. (micron e-die if that matters)
Therefore, i wouldnt be suprised at all if it cant even run stable at its default XMP profile (CL18 3600MHz 1.35v) and causes this kind of stuff to happen.

Therefore, i raised the DRAM voltage to 1.4v and ran memtest86 for 2 hours (0 errors, test passed)

So now im waiting for another "downclock" or something. Ill let u know if that happens.

ok the issue still exists i have no idea why does this happen or what this is caused by when it happened again now the cpu temps were 51c the gpu temps were 60c idk what to do now

Just a wag.
When this happens open task manager and see if anything shows busy.
