Repeated PC crashes and bad performance on multiple CPU cores during Cinebench (score 952)
Your PC has been experiencing frequent crashes while playing Steam and Epic games. It recently upgraded from Windows 10 to 11. You're using an i9-12900K, RTX 3080 10 GB VRAM, 32 GB RAM, a mis MPG Edge Wi-Fi Z690.
Have you checked for any fixes yet? Are there any overclocking configurations? Which memory module are you using (including its speed and timings)? What kind of issues are we experiencing—blue screens, black screens, lockups, error messages, etc.? If it matches a specific model with an error code, what is it? What temperatures are you observing? Just to be sure, are we using Cinebench 2024 for performance and GPU testing? We really need more details before helping.
Check if the full system temperatures are available. RAM testing results suggest possible issues. Based on limited data, temperature concerns seem likely.
reviewed bios and noticed my ram wasn't running at advertised speeds. I couldn't locate a solution, only using razer cortex and msi after burner for core voltage. The ram I'm using is g.skill trident 16x2gb 3200mt/s cl 14-14-14-34 1.35v f4-3200c14d-32gtzr. I experience application freezes (the only fix is restarting the pc), black screens, and occasional error messages. I see cpu temperatures in the high 90s and yes, i'm using cinebench 2024.
Turn on XMP, though it might not be necessary initially. Turn off the feature to avoid instability risks. This could signal a memory issue; I’d perform a stress test to confirm. Various tools exist, but MemTest86+ is likely the simplest free option. Are you running this under load or at all times? High sustained loads aren’t unusual for Cinebench, but constant high scores might point to cooling problems. What type of CPU cooler are you using?
I have an MSI 360r v2 cooler. It works smoothly even in the 90s while playing less demanding games such as Roblox. I’m planning to try a memory tester.
