Question PC will restart all of a sudden from time to time, without any BSODs ?

[Michael_123]

Hi! Been a while since I last posted on here, but I'll do my best to explain!

For a while now, my PC has restarted from time to time without any warnings or BSODs.

So far, I've tried these steps without any success:
1. Made sure my PC wasn't overheating.
2. Made sure my drivers were updated.
3. Ran a virus scan, malware scan, adware scan, etc.
4. Ran windows memory diagnostic tool.
5. Reseated RAM/placed in other slots.
6. Disabled automatic restart.
7. Updated my BIOS.

My specs are:
-Asus ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi
-Ryzen 9 5950X (not overclocked)
-EVGA RTX 3070 Ti FTW3
-EVGA Supernova G6 650W fully modular
-Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB @2933
-Corsair H115i Elite RGB
-Crucial SSD 4TB
-Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB
-Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB
-Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB

I don't know what else to do. 🙁 I'll include the last event viewer log & some extra screenshots. If anyone can assist me with this, it'd be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

@Darkbreeze Question: is it bad that my RAM is showing 1800 MHz in HWiNFO & CPU-Z, even though I have it set to 3600 MHz in BIOS, as well as showing 3600MT/s in task manager?

Well, it's supposed to because it's DDR, double data rate memory. So 1800MT/s doubled is 3600MT/s. Always be sure to use MT/s, Megatransfers per second, NOT Mhz, because memory speed isn't measured in Megahertz. Despite the fact that everybody will know what you are talking about, it's always best to use the correct descriptors with anything just to avoid confusion.

Ahhhh! That makes sense! Ty for explaining that to me!

It's no worry at all. Believe me, it's something that even people who've been working on computers for years, either forget or never knew at all. And honestly, aside from people trying to actually understand what the heck is going on, it's just semantics for a lot of people. But, semantics are important in any scenario where the margins or tolerances, are slim. Memory compatibility IS one of those areas and the more people understand that, the much better off they will be going forward because in this area it does pay to be at least a little bit educated. For sure. So, no worries, and if you have other questions which I'm sure you will, just ask. (Big stupid Simon Cowell thumbs up. LOL)
