Wow it's been forever since I've been on here!
This past year I had both a videocard and some RAM die and I decided to completely redo my entire build.
I decided to go with an AMD chip this time after some reviews and bought a Ryzen 5 2600x. Here is the rest of the specs:
Asus ROG x470-F Mobo
GSkill TridentZ 3200 – 16gb
Gigabyte 1080gtx Windforce
Intel SSDPEKKW 512gb M.2 drive
1300w Seasonic Prime Gold PSU
2x HDD
1x Samsung Evo SSD
Cooling is a custom water loop consisting of:
EK x470 monoblock
EK Gigabyte GTX G1 fullcover block
EK XE 480mm x 60mm radiator
EK XE 240mm x 60mm radiator
EK XRES 140 Revo D5 Pump + Reservoir
Custom D5 Variable Pump + Reservoir
10x 120mm Corsair fans on the Rads (push and pull setup)
4 additional case fans to help with airflow and other components
So here’s my problem. I have random reboots and system freezes. Sometimes it’s while gaming, sometimes it’s just working on a spreadsheet in excel for work. No rhyme or reason, seems completely random.
Everything in the system is brand new except the older HDD/SSDs.
I’ve run Prime95 stress tests on the system for an hour to see if it’s the auto overclocks from the CPU.
I’ve run Furmark for an hour to stress the GPU to see if it’s unstable.
I recently replaced the mobo with a RMA from Asus thinking that it was something there.
I’ve monitored all temps and everything is in check with the watercooling. CPU doesn’t break 65c and vid card doesn’t break 50c. Mobo VRMs also stay pretty cool, much cooler than stock.
I’ve reinstalled Windows 10 twice one as a ‘refresh’ and one from scratch.
For the life of me I can’t figure out why this is happening. I don’t think it’s the CPU because of the stress testing, same for the GPU. New PSU should been perfectly fine on the rails especially one that is that much overkill for a single GPU setup. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps it has to do with the power that is being pulled from the wall being unstable? Or my power strip is dying for some reason?
I never had these issues with my old build (i7 setup with a 780 gtx). So it has to be something with the new one right?
I’m looking for ideas/thoughts/advice from the community here because I’m at a complete loss.
