Hey! I've been dealing with some strange reboots and crashes for a year now. These issues have gotten more frequent, so I want to figure out what's behind them. Right now I'm using: Amd Ryzen 5 5600X AM4 RTX 2070 Hyper x DDR4 32gb Seasonic Focus px-650. From the start, the motherboard struggled with normal clock speeds because of its boost features—it would crash or fail to boot entirely. That changed after I fixed it by locking the speed to 4.3ghz and adjusting the voltage. Now everything works fine! I updated the BIOS to the latest stable release, not a beta. However, during games I still experience drops and the screen goes black. I've looked into eventlogger, which shows it sometimes misses GPU activity (events 13 and 14) and alerts about event 19 when switching cores. Before my current power supply, these problems appeared too. After switching PSUs, they lessened but have resurfaced again. Am I right to think this might be a faulty product, or is there another factor we should investigate? Any advice would be greatly appreciated—I'm really frustrated.
