Recently I have graded my system from an i5 2500k system(oc'd to 4.4ghz) to a r5 3600 system. I reused my case, storage and gpu.
My old system ran everything fine.
New system however... Every game i run, crashes the entire system. Most ive seen it have any game run was abt 20secs. Most times within 5 secs, crash. Total system lock up, screen goes blank.
This never happened with my old parts. Borrowed another known working gpu to test, it lasts maybe 2 secs more before a crash? I can't believe that it could be my psu, it ran games fine days before i swapped out new parts, that pulled more power.
My reused gpu is an asus rx 580 oc 8gb gpu. Rest of my system :
Mb: msi b450m pro m2(latest bios)
Ram: oloy Warhawk rgb ram 3200mhz
SanDisk 120gb ssd
1th Toshiba hd
PSU: Thermaltake SMART650w 80+bronze
The gpu i borrowed to test is a gigabyte gtx 970
Cryorig h7 cpu cooler as well.
I have the latest chipset drivers.
I can run cpu stability tests fine.. Cinebench ect.. Everything fine. Anything gpu intensive.. System lock up/crash.
What could be the issue here?
Also I've run memtest for about an hr.. No errors.. Havnt gotten around to doing it longer.
Edit: Yes this is a fresh install of Windows. Updated signature, Added PSU.
