Question Reseated GPU - crashing

[FrutyX]

First, I do recommend to read this first: https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/gpu-at-pcie-x2-3-0.3813872/ , because it's happening after this.

I moved my GPU to another slot, to the right slot, that is running at PCIe x16 3.0 (was x2 previously), but, once I start a game, it usually crashes within the first 5 mins, how? Monitors go dark, sometimes you can still hear the sound in the background, GPU fans go full speed and not even restart helps, complete shutdown is required.

- I've tried to completely taken the GPU out again, reseated it, I even blowed the GPU with some air, didn't helped.

- I also used DDU and installed new AMD GPU drivers (23.7.1), then I used DDU again to go back to 23.5.2, no luck

- I was watching the temps as well, when it crashed, there was 59°C, so it doesn't even seems to be a heat issue, the Watts were around 100

- In my case, everything seems to be connected just fine, GPU is in the slot and it also clicked

Is there something else I can do or do I have to go back to the PCI-Express x2 3.0 slot?

Having the exact same issue but with an NVIDIA video card (RTX 3080), weird. I have yet to be able to resolve it. You can try underclocking your GPU and see if that helps, or roll back to an even older GPU driver maybe.
