Hello, welcome! I understand my English isn't perfect. I've been using a new M.2 NVMe SSD (Kingston A2000 1TB) for about two weeks now. Before that, all my files were on two HDDs and an old SATA drive. During this time, I swapped out my GPU from a GTX 1080 to a GTX 1550ti and added some case fans. Since then, my PC freezes unexpectedly for a few seconds, and the mouse stops responding. This usually occurs only when using video players like Chrome or YouTube, Twitch, or Twitter videos. I haven't played much yet, but in about two to three hours I couldn't recognize anything. It's unclear if the current Windows 10 version is the cause, because before switching to NVMe I had a recent update. I did another clean install after removing the GPU for a day, and once it was back in, the blue screen disappeared—but freezes persisted. About two weeks ago, I replaced the GPU with an RTX 2080 Super, thinking it might be due to overheating or a faulty card. Now here we are. Any suggestions? My current setup: Mainboard – ASUS PRIME Z370-A, CPU – Intel Core i7-8700K, GPU – RTX 2080 SUPER, RAM – 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 at 3600MHz, PSU – Corsair HX850i NVMe, SSDs – Kingston A2000 1TB (CrystalDiskInfo: "Good", 30°C), Seagate BarraCuda 1TB (CrystalDiskInfo: "Good", 27°C), Western Digital Blue 2TB (CrystalDiskInfo: "Good", 28°C), OS – Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. Note: Since I wrote this for the first time, my SATA SSD's health dropped from 100% to 88% according to CrystalDiskInfo, and I think this happened in the past few days. Not sure what it means.)
Sure, share the BSoD minidumps for analysis. I'll help you identify any issues that could assist in resolving the problem.
I couldn't locate it, but it should have been there if I'd installed it recently, correct? After completing the BSD loop, I performed another clean install. Probably mixed something up.
They appear only when you encounter a BSoD. Swapping graphics cards shouldn't trigger this issue...
I can't share it since I performed a clean install after the boot loop. I understand. Before switching to the M.2 SSD and updating the power supply, everything functioned perfectly for about two years. Perhaps it's the latest Windows version or the new SSD. I also changed the PSU, but I'm not sure what caused the issue.
