System failure when handling high demand
System failure when handling high demand
Hey there, I noticed some issues with your system after upgrading. The crashes seem linked to overheating—CPU temps reached about 45°C during a crash. Also, there was audio distortion and a black screen under stress, especially when gaming. You mentioned driver problems after switching from Intel to AMD, which might be a factor. Consider checking thermal paste, ensuring proper airflow, and verifying that your motherboard supports the new CPU model. If temperatures stay high, it could affect stability. Let me know if you want more tips!
Because it was a different port, I changed the CPU, motherboard, and RAM. The GPU, storage, power supply, and case stayed the same.
Another weird thing I've noticed is that my USB devices don't get any power, as long as my PC's turned off. Though I don't know if that is an error, or something I just took for granted from my older motherboard.
Did you download every driver from the motherboard maker’s site? Chipset and related drivers must be added manually using AMD tools, not automatically by Windows. Not doing this can lead to problems. I’d install all available drivers on the manufacturer’s support page and refresh the BIOS if needed. Then recheck for any crashes.
