[SOLVED] System constantly crashes when gaming ?

[Gigabot]

Hello,
I started a previous thread about this problem and now it is back

PC Specs
Motherboard: ROG Strix B650E-F
CPU: Ryzen 7900X
GPU: 4070
RAM: 32GB 5200mhz
PSU: Corsair 850g
Physical Drives
1tb wd black sn850 (OS)
1tb sn770 (storage)
1tb wavlink 880t (storage)

I have this problem, where after a few weeks to months it will just crash every time I game or worse.

I had a 980 pro 2tb, had to rma that twice. then a 990 pro, after constant issues and windows installs it would not even open windows without crashing,

now on the sn850 after a month of being stable, it crashes anytime I game.

I have tried removing oc, uninstalling software, ddu and fresh install latest nvidia drivers.

I cannot check crash logs because every time it crashes it fails to log crash dump, it says so in the event viewer.

I need help, I have been dealing with this since Feb and really close to smashing this whole pc.

I don't understand how 3 different high end drives crash, when a cheap wavlink gen 4 no dram worked for 2 years no problems.


please help

I have tried about 6 fresh installs of windows 11 on 3 different gen 4 drives, and 4 different nvidia drivers since the 5000 series fiasco

Run from USB

It passed the tests, thx for the link and suggestion. I have spare gpu, I am going to swap and see if it is the 4070 since I still have 1 year left of warranty.

Ok, this gets even weirder,

I swapped in a spare gpu, predator A770, it wont even launch a game without crashing.

considering it has been 3 nvme drives, and 2 gpus,

both ddu'd with new drivers,

is it the mobo?

 

[Gigabot]

could it be psu?

 

[drivinfast247]

could it be psu?

How old is that unit?

Final update with a positive ending.

It was the asia horse cable extensions.

Got the 990 pro, all good to go, stress tested(cinebenchr24, occt).

Finally I have peace, shout out to all the people who gave me suggestions and genuinely helped.

I learned a lot along the way.

Like my ram speed(6000mhz) was too high for my cpu(5200mhz max), ddr4 was based on mobo limits but ddr5 is based on cpu ( I did not know).

Now my system is snappy and fun and I am glad to be part of a community that offers to help people openly.
