Another kernel power issue 41 guide for fixing
Yeah, sorry for the mix-up. I’ve heard others say ATX2.0 wasn’t built with the power design of the 30/40 series in mind. Still, I’m not an expert—just sharing what people told me. Thanks for the apology.
I don't like my selections haha. Well, I thought it made sense. It was an upgrade rather than a new PC, so the performance cost was all I had to pay. I'm in university and don't have much money, so I aimed for the best value. The PSU was passed on from a friend and wasn't new. I couldn't afford a big GPU upgrade, and my 2060 was starting to lose performance. I got a good deal on the 3080 and it hasn't caused any problems so far (at least as far as I know). It's still under warranty, about nine months left. I added four RAM sticks because I just bought another identical set to boost capacity affordably. That was the main reason—it wasn't for performance, just more memory. I'm not sure what else might be wrong, but the sudden shutdown without warning or graphical issues made me think it was power-related, and I know it's not overheating.
Thank you for the power supply suggestion. I might check the PSU with a multimeter before purchasing another one, especially if graphics or RAM seem to be the issue. I plan to run your RAM tests, though it’s a bit tricky since there isn’t a clear pattern or obvious sign of failure. It hasn’t happened again since I wrote this post—could there be a clue about a memory controller problem? I’m not an expert, but I’m trying to gather more information.
You're explaining why you need to test each stick individually. It's a bit tricky because crashes often happen during installation or gameplay. You mentioned trying Prime95, but it's not as reliable as testing with actual games like GSKill Trident. Just keep in mind the 2x kit BDIE requirement. Hope this helps!
I understand what you're saying. It was my mistake to clarify it so many times. I was just checking a GSKill Trident 2x16GB 3600 kit that's affordable. I'll take it. Thanks again. I'll let you know once it's all done. I hope the other person reads this too and finds a way to solve it. Appreciate your effort on the platform.
I get what you mean—it's a solid setup and I appreciate the value of used components at a lower cost. However, as you've noticed, there are some problems here, especially with the RAM. It's a known issue with Ryzen CPUs on AM5 platforms, and it's not something that can be easily fixed. You might try adjusting the settings or sticking to stock speeds, maybe using two sticks instead of four. Tuning RAM could take a long time and isn't reliable, especially if you're not familiar with it. Still, your B-die kit is compatible with Ryzen, which is why these parts work so well. They even allow for serious overclocking with minimal effort. Let me know how it goes!
