System freezes during high-performance gaming sessions
System freezes during high-performance gaming sessions
I recently replaced my motherboard and power supply (NZXT N7-Z37XT-B1 and Phanteks Revolt X 1200W 80+ Platinum). After a fresh Windows install, everything seemed to work fine, and I didn’t enable overclocking on the board because it wasn’t reliable. I have the XMP profile active for my 3600MHz RAM. The crash messages I encounter are “Paged Fault in Non Paged Area,” “Win32kfull.sys,” and “Kmode Exception Not Handled.” Mostly the first one appears. I’ve verified my drivers and found nothing unusual. My Memory Diagnostic test showed no issues. The crashes tend to happen during larger games like RS Siege, Assassins Creed Odyssey, and Blades and Sorcery (VR). I ran Farming Simulator and Sims 4 without any problems. I’m still unsure what to do or how to resolve this. Thanks for your assistance—please let me know if you need more details. P.S. For reference, my previous Mobo/PSU didn’t cause crashes even when I overclocked the CPU.
It seems only the Mobo wasn’t happy with the RAM at 3600. My previous unit worked fine. I’m a bit disappointed if I have to pay more for it and it won’t fit. Still, I’ll give it a shot. Thanks for the tip!
