System Details: Motherboard model - GIGABYTE X570 AORUS XTREME AMD CPU - AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (Ryzen 9 5000 Series Vermeer Zen 3, 16 cores, 3.4 GHz, AM4, 105W, no integrated graphics)
Desktop Graphics - GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 4090, 24GB GDDR6X PCIe 4.0
Power Supply - CORSAIR AX1600
RAM - CORSAIR Dominator Platinum RGB, 64GB (2 x 32GB), DDR4 3600
I’m experiencing random black screen crashes. During these events, all three display outputs disconnect and the GPU fans reach maximum speed. I still hear audio—game sounds or background videos. This has happened only three times, the last one was a few weeks ago while I paused a game, and then twice this evening within five minutes.

My previous setup was a Ryzen 7 1800X with a GIGABYTE AORUS RTX 2080 Ti (11GB, factory AIO water cooling). About a year ago, it started showing the same problems with identical symptoms.

Anyone know what might be causing this and how to resolve it? Would you like a tool that logs crashes so you can review what triggered the failure? For example, after rebooting and opening a crash logger, it should show details like GPU or CPU overheating, motherboard faults, etc. If you have any leads, it would be really helpful!

Please read this article on what information we need before you post... hence why we're asking more questions: Is this a fresh Windows install? Or are you re-using old Windows from your last computer? Please list your hard drives/SSDs/NVMe drivers If your UEFI (BIOS) version is not F36 or F37F please update to F36 (F37f is a security update only and will hurt performance... it's up to you if you want the added security) Did you install the latest chipset drivers from August 2023? Have you cleared the CMOS ? Yes, there is a program that logs what happens. It's called Event Viewer and is part of Windows. The System Log is what you would want to look at: Spoiler If you've done all those things and it doesn't fix anything, let's check all the cores on your 5950x for stability: Download CoreCycler from Github (latest version is fine) Extract the zip file to somewhere on your computer Open config.ini Delete everything in config.ini [ Ctrl + A >> Delete key] Copy this config.ini and paste it into your config.ini Spoiler # General settings [General] # The program to perform the actual stress test # The following programs are available: # - PRIME95 # - AIDA64 # - YCRUNCHER # You can change the test mode for each program in the relavant [sections] below. # Note: For AIDA64, you need to manually download and extract the portable ENGINEER version and put it # in the /test_programs/aida64/ folder # Note: AIDA64 is somewhat sketchy as well # Default: PRIME95 stressTestProgram = YCRUNCHER # Set the runtime per core # You can define a specific runtime per core, by entering a numeric value in seconds, # or use 'h' for hours, 'm' for minutes and 's' for seconds # Examples: 360 = 360 seconds # 1h4m = 1 hour, 4 minutes # 1.5m = 1.5 minutes = 90 seconds # # Automatic runtime: # You can also set it to "auto", in which case it will perform one full run of all the FFT sizes in the selected # Prime95 preset for each core, and when that is finished, it continues to the next core and starts again # For Aida64 and y-Cruncher, the "auto" setting will default to 10 Minutes per core # # Below are some examples of the runtime for one iteration for the various tests on my 5900X with one thread # The first iteration is also usually the fastest one # Selecting two threads usually takes *much* longer than one thread for one iteration in Prime95 # - Prime95 "Smallest": 4K to 21K - [SSE] ~3-4 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~8-9 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~8-10 Minutes # - Prime95 "Small": 36K to 248K - [SSE] ~4-6 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~14-19 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~14-19 Minutes # - Prime95 "Large": 426K to 8192K - [SSE] ~18-22 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~37-44 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~38-51 Minutes # - Prime95 "Huge": 8960K to MAX - [SSE] ~13-19 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~27-40 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~33-51 Minutes # - Prime95 "All": 4K to MAX - [SSE] ~40-65 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~92-131 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~102-159 Minutes # - Prime95 "Moderate": 1344K to 4096K - [SSE] ~7-15 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~17-30 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~17-33 Minutes # - Prime95 "Heavy": 4K to 1344K - [SSE] ~15-28 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~43-68 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~47-73 Minutes # - Prime95 "HeavyShort": 4K to 160K - [SSE] ~6-8 Minutes <|> [AVX] ~22-24 Minutes <|> [AVX2] ~23-25 Minutes # - y-Cruncher: Depends on the number of selected tests and the duration per test # Default: 6m runtimePerCore = auto # Periodically suspend the stress test program # This can simulate load changes / switches to idle and back # Setting this to 1 will periodically suspend the stress test program, wait for a bit, and then resume it # You should see the CPU load and clock speed drop significantly while the program is suspended and rise back up again # Note: This will increase the runtime of the various stress tests as seen in the "runtimePerCore" setting by roughly 10% # Default: 1 suspendPeriodically = 1 # The test order of the cores # Available modes: # Default: On CPUs with more than 8 physical cores: 'Alternate'. Otherwise 'Random' # Alternate: Alternate between the 1st core on CCD1, then 1st on CCD2, then 2nd on CCD1, then 2nd on CCD2, etc. # This should distribute the heat more evenly and possibly allow for higher clocks on CPUs with 2 CCDs # Random: A random order # Sequential: Cycle through the cores in numerical order # # You can also define your own testing order by entering a list of comma separated values. # The list will be processed as provided, which means you can test the same core multiple times per iteration. # Do note however that the "coresToIgnore" setting still takes precedence over any core listed here. # The enumeration of cores starts with 0 # Example: 5, 4, 0, 5, 5, 7, 2 # # Default: Default coreTestOrder = Default # Skip a core that has thrown an error in the following iterations # If set to 0, this will test a core in the next iterations even if has thrown an error before # Default: 1 skipCoreOnError = 1 # Stop the whole testing process if an error occurred # If set to 0 (default), the stress test programm will be restarted when an error # occurs and the core that caused the error will be skipped in the next iteration # Default: 0 stopOnError = 0 # The number of threads to use for testing # You can only choose between 1 and 2 # If Hyperthreading / SMT is disabled, this will automatically be set to 1 # Currently there's no automatic way to determine which core has thrown an error # Setting this to 1 causes higher boost clock speed (due to less heat) # Default: 1 # Maximum: 2 numberOfThreads = 1 # Use only one thread for load generation, but assign the affinity to both virtual (logical) cores # This way the Windows Scheduler should bounce the load back and forth between the two virtual cores # This may lead to additional stress situation otherwise not possible # This setting has no effect if Hyperthreading / SMT is disabled or if numberOfThreads = 2 # Default: 0 assignBothVirtualCoresForSingleThread = 1 # The max number of iterations # High values are basically unlimited (good for testing over night) # Default: 10000 maxIterations = 10000 # Ignore certain cores # Comma separated list of cores that will not be tested # The enumeration of cores starts with 0 # Example: coresToIgnore = 0, 1, 2 # Default: (empty) coresToIgnore = # Restart the stress test process when a new core is selected # This means each core will perform the same sequence of tests during the stress test # Note: The monitor doesn't seem to turn off when this setting is enabled # # Important note: # One disadvantage of this setting is that it has the potential to limit the amount of tests that the stress test program # can run. # In Prime95 for example, each FFT size will run for roughly 1 minute (except for very small ones), so if you want to make # sure that Prime95 runs all of the available FFT sizes for a setting, you'll have to extend the "runtimePerCore" setting # from the default value to something higher. # For example the "Huge"/SSE preset has 19 FFT entries, and tests on my 5900X showed that it roughly takes 13-19 Minutes # until all FFT sizes have been tested. The "Large"/SSE seems to take between 18 and 22 Minutes. # I've included the measured times in the comment for the "runtimePerCore" setting above. # # If this setting is disabled, there's a relatively high chance that each core will eventually pass through all of the # FFT sizes since Prime95 doesn't stop between the cores and so it evens out after time. # # Default: 0 restartTestProgramForEachCore = 0 # Set a delay between the cores # If the "restartTestProgramForEachCore" flag is set, this setting will define the amount of seconds between the end of the # run of one core and the start of another # If "restartTestProgramForEachCore" is 0, this setting has no effect # Default: 15 delayBetweenCores = 15 # Prime95 specific settings [Prime95] # The test modes for Prime95 # SSE: lightest load on the processor, lowest temperatures, highest boost clock # AVX: medium load on the processor, medium temperatures, medium boost clock # AVX2: heavy load on the processor, highest temperatures, lowest boost clock # AVX512: only available for certain CPUs (Ryzen 7000, some Intel Alder Lake, etc) # CUSTOM: you can define your own settings for Prime.

Please see the readme.txt and the /tools/enable_performance_counter.bat file for a possible way # to fix these issues. There's no guarantee that it works though. # # Default: 0 disableCpuUtilizationCheck = 0 # Debug setting to enable querying for the CPU frequency # # This setting enables checking the CPU frequency # Currently it doesn't really serve any purpose.

If you didn't, this may not work correctly because your RAM may be overclocked. Double-click Run CoreCycler.bat Continue to use your computer (you can even game) and shouldn't notice much while it's running unless you're doing intense all-core workloads You can look at the window while it's running, and annotate any errors (they will be core specific). Once it says Iteration 2 you can stop it. (This means it's tested all 16 cores.) If for some reason it crashes the computer that also tells us something

If you didn't, this may not work correctly because your RAM may be overclocked. Double-click Run CoreCycler.bat Continue to use your computer (you can even game) and shouldn't notice much while it's running unless you're doing intense all-core workloads You can look at the window while it's running, and annotate any errors (they will be core specific). Once it says Iteration 2 you can stop it. (This means it's tested all 16 cores.) If for some reason it crashes the computer that also tells us something

This is a classic sign of a gpu hardware failure. Gigabyte 3080s were notorious for this behavior. It happens when the pcb cracks by the pcie connector tab - there are power traces right by the tab. I would take the card out and check that area very carefully.

Updated system details meet Forum guidelines. Apologies, I rushed to post before it failed again. Windows 11 Pro 64bit Version 22H2, GIGABYTE X570 AORUS XTREME AMD BIOS v37f, AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (no overclocking), CORSAIR Dominator Platinum RGB 64GB (2 x 32GB) DDR4 3600 XMP disabled. GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 4090 24GB GDDR6X PCI Express 4.0, CORSAIR AX1600i power supply. Several SSDs are installed: a 1TB Samsung SSD 850 EVO, an 8TB Samsung 870QVO, and a 4TB Samsung 860 EVO. I also have Windows installed on a 1TB Samsung SSD, plus Steam and library files only on the 8TB drive. Other game launchers like Epic and Origin are available on the 8TB drive. I’m checking the PCIe slot for stability and potential crash causes this weekend. Thanks for all the advice. Also, I’ll be testing your suggestions over the weekend. At WhatIsThis? I’ll also examine the PCIE connector for any issues. Thanks all for your responses. By the way, I’ve added AMD Ryzen Master for temperature monitoring. Now I run three programs: Ryzen Master, Open Hardware Monitor, and iCue from Corsair. They’re on a secondary monitor. I was closely watching during gameplay when the crash occurred. Played for a few hours, and nothing happened. CPU temperatures stayed between 60°C and 68°C. Ryzen Master indicates a max temperature of 90°C, which seems to be the threshold for shutdown. I’m noting that when I first installed Ryzen Master, it reported normal operation and the system was only running for a short time.

About five minutes after my reply, my system crashed again while sitting on the desktop. Could a faulty external USB hub feeding power back into the motherboard be causing these issues? Think about other possibilities before trying the suggested fixes.

Disconnect any non-essential devices and check for crashes. If they persist, reattach them gradually until issues reappear.

ok i know its been a while but ill share an update. i had the crash happen while the USB hub was plugged in. When it crashed i unplugged the hub and plugged all the usb into the motherboard after about 4 hrs it crashed again. So i took the computer down off the wall and removed the video card and inspected the area around the PCIE connection point to look for cracks. i did not see any. I plugged everything back in and put the computer back up on the wall and plugged everything in including the USB hub. in my haste to plug everything in i did not plug in the DATA connection (usb) from my Corsair AX1600i power supply into the mother board. the computer this was saturday afternoon and my computer did not shut off until Tuesday evening when i went to bed. i have had absolutely no issues as of yet. one other thing to note here as well. i opened ryzen master to view more cpu temps to see if i had a temp sensor issue and was causing the crash perhaps and i changed to a profile by accident and im not sure which one but i have noticed that CPU temps are down about 5 -6 F including in games however some times the CPU does get upto 150 F (65.5C) but either way between the two i have not had a single issue since Saturday.
