Initially I assumed the issue was due to power or overheating, but once the fans, lights, and water pump resumed operation without any faults, it pointed elsewhere. The monitor didn’t show temperatures above 75°C and RAM usage stayed around 40%. I first noticed this while streaming Twitch after a League of Legends match, thinking it might be related to the game. It repeated even when no games were playing, just using Chrome. According to Armory Crate and GeForce Experience, all my drivers and BIOS are current. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Here are a few alternative phrasings:

- List the specific errors encountered.
- Detail all the issues observed.
- Outline the problems that occurred.
- Provide a summary of the errors.

All issues detected during the last restart minute have been recorded. The warning may also be useful if needed.

It seems the problem might be related to power or hardware, possibly a faulty CPU. Updating BIOS or drivers could help. I’ll investigate further. Alternatively, a voltage adjustment might resolve it.

The best solution appears to be updating the BIOS or adjusting DOCP settings within it. If that doesn't resolve the issue, consider submitting an RMA after attempting a BIOS rollback if feasible.

ok i flipped the bios setting to DOCP hopefully that works. there isn't a bios to roll back to because this is the only one I've had on the mother board. should I look to RMA the ram or motherboard or both if this doesn't work?

It might be better to remove one stick at a time and verify if the memory is the issue. Perform a live test while using the computer normally to check for crashes. From what you observed, having the CPU returned for repair seemed to resolve the problem.

Sorry for the possibly disappointing update. I’m counting on a RAM stick to fix this!
