Issues occur when games launch on a fresh PC without any problems.
Hey guys, maybe you can help me with this problem, I'm starting to lose my mind over this - Ryzen 7 5700g with Noctua NH-U12S Redux - Nvidia Gtx 1660 Super 6gb from Gigabyte - Msi b450 Gaming plus max - Corsair vengeance 16gb rs (2x8) 3600mhz - Thermaltake Smartlite 500w 80+ white - Thermaltake H700 tg snow Every game crashes to desktop (no error code, no black screen, no blue screen, the game just closes) after like 1 minute, or the game keeps playing but the image just freeze (The game is playable while this happens). Sometimes it runs for like 10 to 15 minutes, but it always crash. This is from more modern games like Nier Automata, Final Fantasy XV to less demanding games like Hollow Knight or Ori and the Blind Forest. I've tried: - Updating the BIOS - Disabling the onboard graphics - Restricted the PBO frequencies (Precision Boost Overdrive) in some cases this option goes over the limit of the cpu, and leds to the crash ( This guy who seems to have the same problem explains it much better ) - Reseating the gpu and the ram - Run memtest64 (pass) - Updating and installing older versions of Nvidia Drivers - Using HDMI and DisplayPort - Reinstall W11 - Install W10 - Reinstalling Games As a side note, I've run furmark with anti-aliasing off and no problems, but when running it with 8x MSAA Furmark crashed in like 3 seconds Thermals seems fine, maxing out to 65°-70°. I think it might be the psu (Which is low, I know), but it's such a mix of weird crashes and freezes and I'm 99% sure that a faulty psu would not crash a game, it would turn off the pc direclty. Might be a combination of both psu and graphics card? Where the gpu is not receiving the power it needs to run on heavy load? That would explain the crashes on heavy demanding games, but on low demanding games too? I just don't know Any ideas on what it could be? Thanks in advance!!
It appears the system is experiencing instability. It seems unrelated to your graphics card, making your furmark results unreliable. Consider using Cinebench or prime95 to test crash speed—you’d likely fail in under two minutes. Afterward, reset your BIOS to factory defaults. This issue could stem from various factors, but most likely involves unstable RAM or CPU performance at current settings. Was the installation done from a USB drive?
Update your clock settings. It might seem silly, but certain games can stop working if your time isn't aligned correctly.
Consider lowering your RAM speed to 3200 or 3000 MHz.
Install MSI Afterburner or a similar tool to adjust your GPU power target to 80 or 90%.
Switch to a different cable for your monitor, and if possible, try another monitor.
(It might seem odd, but cables have caused some unexpected issues before)
You mentioned the game froze quickly, so I restored my BIOS to the standard setting and attempted FFXV again, but it still crashed when loading a game.
It was already at 3200mhz (my initial thought was that too), now I'm running it at 2133mhz but it still crashes. I'm trying the MSI option. EDIT: I haven't used afterburner before, and you're referring to the power target? I don't think it's the third one, but I'll give it a shot just for fun.
Check the windows event viewer for details when the problem happens: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/...ent-viewer. An error may show even without a user pop-up.
