Question Whenever I try to play games they either crash or my entire system blue screens.

[IGUGSVA]

Recently when I’ve been playing CSGO my screen will freeze but I’ll still be able to control myself and move/shoot as I can hear this through my headset even when the screen is frozen. I thought it was just CSGO but I tried to boot up valorant and it crashed saying there was an issue with the graphics driver and that it crashed.

I did a fresh install of my graphics driver, same issue occurred, I then decided to run cyberpunk at max settings to see if it would crash and that blue screened my PC.

I’m not sure what is going on, I am in the process of updating my bios to see if that might fix the issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

(Note: I’ve had this PC for over a year now and have had no issues up until this point)

PC Specs:
GPU - ASUS ROG Strix 2080 Ti
CPU - Ryzen 9 3900x
Memory - Trident Z Neo 2 x 16Gb 3600 MHz
Storage - Intel SSD 660P 1TB
Motherboard - ROG Crosshair Hero VIII (Wifi)

Okay with research it seems to be the graphics driver the error is pointing to.

Going to try and roll back to an earlier driver and see if that fixes the issue.

Hello IGUGSVA.

Did you ever check before you reverted to see if they were the up-to-date drivers? Tells us how the driver reversion process goes, and provide crash dumps if applicable.

I actually think my GPU has just been thermal throttling. I didn’t even consider it because I’ve never had thermal issues before, I noticed that whenever my GPU gets to 80ish degrees Celsius the game either freezes or I blue screen. Making a custom GPU fan curve to keep the temps below 80 seemed to have fixed it for now

Alright, sorry for the delayed response. Let me know how it goes!
