Hi.
built a brand new pc today with a Ryzen 5 3600. Due to budget issues, it is using the Stealth cooler which i know isn’t great. I’ll be looking to upgrade this soon. I did use Arctic MX-4 paste to replace the stock paste, which I thought would help things.
I’ve had to lock the frequency at 3.6GHz to avoid stress test crashing. However, even at that frequency, the computer still crashes under Aida64 stress test.
the temps sit at around 75C before the pc freezes and just reboots.
is there anything I can do to avoid this happening? I know stress tests aren’t realistic, but surely the pc shouldn’t be crashing after 5 minutes?
would massively appreciate any help. thanks!
EDIT I was just surfing the internet, no stress test open and the PC crashed again.
EDIT Have tried memtest86, but no errors.
