Question Random Freezing, Crashing, with no BSOD.

[cprout618]

I have reinstalled windows, tested and reseated memory (with windows test, no errors), cleared cmos and installed latest stable bios, checked temps, and lastly tested the psu by using the corsair jumper method (with paper clip) and got the fan to spin for a second (its my understanding since its zero rpm it doesn't continue to spin). Any other ideas I should be testing or can it still be the psu even if the jumper works and its not even 2 years old?

Build:
AMD - Ryzen 9 7900X3D
GIGABYTE - B650M DS3H
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER
CORSAIR - DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 5200MHz
Samsung - 990 PRO 2TB
CORSAIR - RMe Series RM750e

try the stick of ram one by one each time

Paperclip test of PSU is like turning on the car engine, without doing the test drive.

All this does, is like you turning on the car engine and when engine starts, you instantly assume that the car drives just fine, without ever doing the test drive.
So, no. Just turning on the PSU, without putting any load to it, doesn't mean PSU works fine.

Any other ideas I should be testing

Random reboots or shutdowns are mostly caused by 2 issues:
1. CPU/GPU overheats and to prevent any damage, system shuts down.
2. PSU fails to deliver enough power to the GPU or fails to keep smooth enough voltage for PC's operation.

First check your CPU/GPU temps, both at idle and under load. If temps are within reason then it's safe to assume that it's the PSU who is acting up.

can it still be the psu even if the jumper works and its not even 2 years old?

Corsair RMe is mediocre quality PSU, good for office build without dedicated GPU, but any PC with dedicated GPU, especially the 220W powerhouse you have - better build quality PSU is advised.

To rule out PSU issue, testing with 2nd, good quality, known to work PSU is only option.

That being said, good PSUs to go for, are: Seasonic Focus/Vertex/PRIME, Corsair RMx/RMi/HXi/AXi, Super Flower Leadex Gold/Platinum/Titanium.
In 650W range.
Or any of these ATX 3.0/3.1 PSUs: https://hwbusters.com/best_picks/best-atxv3-pcie5-ready-psus-picks-hardware-busters/2/

(My 3x PCs are also powered by Seasonic. I have 2x PRIME TX-650 units and one Focus PX-550 unit. Full specs with pics in my sig.)

thanks. It was not the PSU. After testing the RAM one at a time I got no errors but noticed a freeze right away after logging into windows and decided to just stick the other one in by itself and so far it has stayed on for a few hours which is the longest in two day. sweeping my hair up from the floor now.
