I've replaced the 2x8GB sticks with new ones I previously removed. The games that previously crashed now run smoothly for at least 15 minutes without any crashes so far. Besides Memtest86, are there other memory testing tools available?
memtest serves as the benchmark for checking RAM, but it requires multiple full runs—often hours long. This accuracy depends on the system functioning properly; if crashes occur without file creation, deeper problems exist.
The incident happened once more. It seems the RAM isn't the issue. I updated the BIOS, which shouldn't affect this. Regarding storage space, it appears to be nearly empty, so that shouldn't cause any problems either.
This file appears to be a WHEA error, yet it's still displaying as a blue screen.
The rain pattern on the wallpaper appears intentional. The system settings should be adjusted to disable automatic reboot. Refer to the Control Panel for instructions on changing this setting.
After four hours of troubleshooting and swapping the RTX 3080 for my old GTX 970, I was ready to return the GPU for a warranty claim. Eventually, my PC worked well with Quiet Bios—thankfully the GPU switches on GPUs functioned properly. I reinstalled the BIOS in Performance mode, and so far there have been no crashes. I’ll keep an eye on it over the next few days; if another crash occurs, I’ll likely send the GPU back. I decided to go with the GPU after noticing crashes only during heavily graphical tasks. Performance renderings, Cinebench, and Prime95 all ran smoothly. Also, after reinserting the 3080 directly into the PCIE slot from the riser, the VGA light stayed bright on the monitor regardless of my actions. Only after switching to silent BIOS did the PC start up again.
