    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    So I contacted the person who sold it to me and he said to check if it's still under warranty, and it is, so I will just do an RMA on it.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    Wouldn't that still be an issue when using the 1060 though?

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    I'm under the assumption that this issue was unique to me. If you all think it will happen for anyone then I obviously wouldn't sell it to someone else. Or I would at least tell them about the issues I had.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    After playing MW 2 for the past few days with no crashes it seems clear that the GPU is the problem. I'm going to sell it and get a replacement card. Which one would you guys recommend...

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    It's been 3 days I've been playing MW 2 without a single crash. I will continue testing but it seems like the issue is the 3060 RTX. I will report back after a few days.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    The 3060 was used, but the PSU was new. I upgraded because my old PSU didn't have enough power cables for the 3060. I have already gone back to the 1060 and will continue to see if I get any crashes this week.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    I have not, but I already replaced it with the 1060. Let me see if I continue to not having any crashes and I will take it from there.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    I reinstalled the 1060 and was able to play MW 2 with no issue. I will keep playing it for the next week to see if it crashes. If not then the issue must be the GPU.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    That will be my first step. I will go back to the 1060, using DDU to update the drivers, and see if I still get crashes.

    I haven't had a chance to try yet. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow night I can.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    Wouldn't that be the same as removing them with DDU and/or reinstalling Windows?

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    I got you. I misread your comment. My PC says version 22H2. How would I know which variant I have? There's nothing listed in my properties. Thanks.

    Okay thanks. I can try that if nothing else works. I don't particularly want to upgrade to Windows 11 though :D

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    I'm using Windows 10, but I don't see why that matters. Everything ran fine with my 1060.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    That's a good point. Thank you. I didn't even think of that. I will try that. My original PSU was 620 watts.

    Games crash after upgrading to 3060 RTX

    I upgraded to a 3060 RTX and now Far Cry 6, BF: 2042, and now MW 2 crash. Before that I had a 1060 GTX and never had any issue. I also upgraded my PSU to an EVGA - 650W 80 Plus Gold I reinstalled the games, used DDU to completely remove the old drivers, and reinstalled Windows with no luck...

    Xbox Game Pass for PC - gives me errors every time I try to install a game :(

    I had a very similar problem where I couldn't even install the Xbox app. I had to reset the Windows store, restart, and then install the app from the Windows Store and then it worked. I went to install Back 4 Blood and it froze at 3%, but then when I tried to cancel and reinstall, it was...

    How do I test my PC's performance and stability?

    I recently upgraded my PC and everything is working fine. But I would like to know if there is a way I can run diagnostic tests to ensure everything is hooked up properly. And I would like to run some kind of performance checks to ensure it's performing at optimal speeds. May I have some...

    Upgrade Advice

    Thank you. I don't know about the encoding as I'm very new to this and don't really know what I'm doing. If I can get away with the 11400 I will do that, but can I use that to stream on a single PC?

    Upgrade Advice

    This is helpful, thanks. How about if I use an i5-3570k for streaming? That's what I'm upgrading from.

    Upgrade Advice

    Could you recommend a Mobo? Also, just to confirm, you're recommending a 10400 or 10700 over a 11400? I assume the 11400 is better.

    Upgrade Advice

    I most plan on doing a lot of streaming and then putting whatever good content I can get from that on YouTube. So I don't imagine it will be that much editing. I do plan on upgrading my GPU once I can, but what CPU would you recommend in that case?

    How do I use an SSD/HDD combination?

    Can someone tell me how to move games I installed onto my HDD? I have Steam, Origin, and Ubisoft's launchers installed.

    How do I use an SSD/HDD combination?

    This makes sense. Thank you. So having my games on the HDD and OS on the SSD will still be faster than having everything on the HDD?

    How do I use an SSD/HDD combination?

    I bought a 250 GB SSD and am using it as my primary drive with Windows and a few games installed. I have my 1 TB HDD installed as a secondary and which currently has nothing on it. Using the SSD has definitely sped things up, but I can install a handful of games, which is proving to be a...

    What are you nerds playing this weekend?

    If I get a chance to play at all it will be Battlefield V MP. Since moving to a SSD I can only install the games I will actually play. Currently I have BF V, Apex Legends, LA Noire, and Far Cry 5. Far Cry is simply for the co-op although my friend is never free to play it with me, so it might...

    New PS4 owner

    I bought the $199 deal and the $40 PS+ and I don't know what to do with the PS+ pass. I bought Uncharted 4, HZD, Spider-man, and Just Cause 3. Only U4 has multiplayer and apparently only 1 mode. What should I use the pass for? I'm mostly a PC gamer so I play my multiplayer games on my PC.

    CPU upgrade advice requested

    I'm trying to stick to a budget of around $300. The i7-7700 is already $250 alone. That's what someone recommended to me on OCN. Where are you seeing that the i5-8600k is only a couple of bucks more than the i5-7600k? At Microcenter the 7600 is $180 and the 8600 is $299 I've never...

    CPU upgrade advice requested

    Thanks for the response. After thinking it over I've decided to sell my parts and do an upgrade. Even if I can overclock safely with the revision 1.0 board I don't feel comfortable doing it because it's completely new to me. The people on OCN have recommended some parts and it's been about 5...

    CPU upgrade advice requested

    So on OCN someone said that my board isn't really optimal for overclocking because I have revision 1.0 instead of 1.1. They told me to get a used board that's meant for overclocking. Do you guys think I should do that or just do a cheap upgrade? What would get me a better bang for my buck?
