i got a xfx rx580 4gb oc +
-cooler master mwe 550w 80+ bronze PSU
-x470 MSI gaming plus
-ryzen 7 1700 stock speed and cooler
-only 1 4GB Ballistix sport 2666Hz stick because for some reason the other one doesn't work
-128gb SSD
My Problem is:-
I tried to use gpu intensive applications but the monitor just freezes and pixels turn purple and green then the monitor resets and gpu.
I get a notification saying "Default Radeon wattman settings have been restored due to an unexpected system failure".
I use an HDMI cable that was with the monitor.
I didn't do any overclocking even XMP.
thank for your time <3

Suggestion..
Settings in After burner Cause Wattman to fail..
Tell Afterburner NOT to save..
Also get a FAN speed program, to CHECK...as Wattman wont TEST the fans on start, nad may NOT turn them on..

If you want to make sure, Open the control panel and goto wattman..It then Load your settings. wattman..
