PC powers off exclusively during gaming sessions.
I believe I resolved it after dealing with the typical crashes from p. I was really annoyed by them, so I rebuilt the system completely. First, I wiped all data from every disk. Then I removed the GPU, cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol and a soft brush, and replaced it with an Arctic MX6 and new thermal pads (reduced temperature by about 8°C). After that, I reinserted the CPU, checked for bent pins, and fixed any issues. I swapped the RAM slots, inspected for corrosion, cleaned the motherboard thoroughly, and paid extra attention to cable management. I also installed a new Arctic fan and updated Windows 11 Pro with a fresh license. After two months, the PC runs smoothly, often boosting performance by 5-8%. I’m not sure which step fixed everything, but I think hands-on work helped a lot. Your tips were really useful!
Hello, I upgraded my PC yesterday. My setup includes a Ryzen 5 5600, RX 6700 XT, 16GB DDR4 RAM, B450m DS3H motherboard, PSU from Corsair VS550w. It crashes when I run the latest games like Resident Evil 4 remake and Alan Wake II. I also swapped the CPU and GPU without formatting the system. Could it be a power supply issue? Or should I try reformatting and reinstalling everything? I’m not comfortable with this process.
Hello, just checked your message. The issue still seems to exist. Here are some straightforward tips: 1. Update the BIOS; your motherboard appears significantly older than the CPU you installed. Unless you plan to overclock, it’s fine, but updating the BIOS is simple and can fix many problems. This is especially important since you recently upgraded. 2. Run a full benchmark test—CPU and GPU together for about 45 minutes. Monitor temperatures during the test. If everything stays stable afterward, your PSU and cooling system are likely working well. These steps are easy to follow if you’re not experienced. For more details, look for guides from trusted sources to guide you through safely without risking your setup. To better grasp the situation, I’d need some benchmark results and additional information, but these suggestions should help you get started.
