SAM and Geforce 1080 ti

[nekrosoft13]

My motherboard (X570 master) had a bios update recently that added SAM, I decided to enable it just to see what would happen on Geforce 1080 ti.

And I found out that every game either crashed within 5-10 minutes of playing or computer just rebooted.

Disabled SAM and everyting is back to normal.

just FYI

Weird, I've enabled the SAM related settings on my mobo and use a 3080 and didn't get crashes

It could be that there was a problem with the memory allocation.

anyway, just wanted to share an observation that i made
