Discussion System crashes when I play Gucci gang or similar tunes.

[Andohuman]

I really really wish I was joking but it took me a while to figure it out. I rebuilt my pc from scratch cause I felt I didn't do a good job and general gpu issues. Reinstalled os. Pc suffered from random restarts and random crashes (sometimes to BSoD) that required me to manually restart.

I seemed very random until recently, when I clicked on a video meme on Gucci gang (please don't judge me). It particularly crashes when actual song starts (please refer to the video). I've since then tried connecting my headset which caused my pc to just snap restart two times and third time I was able to listen to the audio without issues.

Side notes I've performed memtest86 and prime95(for 19 hours) without any issues.

I have pretty much been solving bugs and errors on my own for a while now but I don't have any clue about this one. Any help is appreciated.

So its crashing only on this particular video or any video?

It's crashing with songs that have a similar bass change like the one in Gucci gang. I was able to get the pattern only when I opened this gucii gang video meme and I specifically tested 4 times and it crashed 4 times.

Not necessarily songs, it also crashes when sudden bass changes happen like a gunshot or a loud noise is encountered when playing a video.

Ok time to go back tot he drawing board. Whats probably happening is your system is shorting out on something. The bass is making the board vibrate and hit something in your case and short out.

Remove the board from the case and set it up on a box outside, and test it. I'd bet money that the problem doesn't happen. If thats the case go ahead and check that your case only has standoffs where there are holes in the board. And make sure the board is fully secured with screws in every hole when you put it back in the case.

Okay, lol, I fixed the issue. Turns out my ram was loosely connected or one of those slots were -----. You were right about the bass making the table vibrate, due to which my ram got unstable and my pc crashed. I tested it out by hitting the table hard and sure enough my PC crashed. Changed the slots now and Its working alright now. Thanks for your help! Really appreciated it. I was losing my mind over this.

No problem, I knew it had to be something loose.

Also please do not use profanity here, thanks.
