New pc build freezing in game

[Battlepants]

Cpu:AMD ryzen 5 3600
Mobo:Gigabyte x570 gaming x
Ram:2x8gb ram corsair
Gpu:Gigabyte geforce gtx 1650 windforce
Ssd: samsung 500gb
Psu:evga supernova 650g+

So I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure this problem out. My games keep crashing randomly. Sometimes its after just a couple minutes and theres been times I've been able to play for a few hours. Although lately it hasnt made it more then half an hour before crashing. When it crashes the screen usually goes all white and the sound freezes. I have to manually shutdown and restart the computer.

All the parts are brand new and all drivers are up to date. I took back the gpu and swapped it for another brand new one and still same problem. I ran memtest on the ram with 0 errors. I originally had the corsair cx650m and swapped to the brand new evga, still crashes. I've completely formatted the ssd and reinstalled windows 10 and all the drivers, still same issues.

I just dont understand, I've run multiple stress tests and nothing will cause the computer to crash until I try a game. The games I have are cs go, pubg, star craft 2 and apex legends. Cs , pubg, and sc will crash every time whereas apex hasnt ever crashed for me. I haven't played it that much though because for some reason origin thinks I'm offline. Cs seems to only crash in competitive mode and not casual mode. Not too sure if this is a graphics card issue or not.
Anyways if anyways can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Could be that your ram isnt on the motherboards QVL list... AMD CPus are incredibly fussy with ram. though its supposed to have gotten better with the new generation of AMD chips.

 

[phanbuey]

can you look at event viewer to see if the crashes are logged?

 

[robot zombie]

One that's RAM. Either incompatibility, bad xmp profile, bad overclock. Less often it's a bad CPU overclock.

Once I had this problem due to dust in the RAM slot.

And RAM can be funky. You can be error free for two months and still have sporadic but aggressive crashes out of the blue, even though the problem is technically always present.

I know Ryzen 3 has had some issues in general, though somebody else will have to chime in there. I might ask if you've grabbed your latest stable, non-beta bios yet, though

Making a bootable memtest USB stick and running it overnight/for a full check is never a bad idea. Also try reseating your RAM, double-checking that all power connectors are all the way inserted, etc.

So I've run the memtest twice and both times came up 0 errors. Even tho theres no errors, the ram could still be the issue?

Corsair ram and gigabyte motherboard, go figure, clear cmos update the motherboard bios, clear cmos, reboot save defaults then only utilize docp.

GA boards ive seen in the past be really a brat with memory compatibility

Switch brands, Gskill, Crucial, Patriot, Mushkin, ADATA, Team, Geil

With any new operating system, the first thing I do is install a slew of runtime software. Recommend downloading using the link and installing this pack:

I've had issues in the past with games on Windows 10 and so this type of software pack has been great for preventing software-related problems.

I patch the OS as far as i can go using askwoody.com

The Corsair RAM's are not the effective choice to pick as Corsair are bit swaying into intel side as they make intel compatible RAM's. Plus your GA board always is picky about the RAM. Plus there are some error in new Ryzen 3rd Gen CPU and motherboard mainly on the x570 boards as the manfracturers are trying to send the new bios updates. Try updating the BIOS and better to get Gskills ram as tbey are more compatible with Ryzen series.

proof?

I l know XMP is an intel thing but that works with AMD too. AMD tend to be fussy with the ram chips used and if the ram is double sided or single sided but thats about it.

 

[Battlepants]

I'll have some g skill ram to try tonight

 

[phanbuey]

if you're passing memtests it would seem that it is not a hardware issue.

not sure that a new ramkit is going to do anything but keep us in the loop!

Gigabyte doesn't agree with you; see below.

@Battlepants: Did you check the QVL memory list (for AMD Matisse CPU) to see if your specific Corsair RAM is on it?

Yes the corsair ram that I have is on that list...
The reason I'm trying a different brand is because my mobo shows spd modules for the ram as "0"

Serial Presence Detect

If it works yay if not I guess I'll have to try something else

 

[Battlepants]

Well it wasn't the brand of ram. Bought 2x8gb g.skill and still same crashing issue. I even bought a brand new ssd. Reset cmos fresh install of windows 10. Update chipset mobo and gpu drivers and still exact same crashing issue. Sigh

 

[phanbuey]

can you post your Event Viewer?

can you post your Event Viewer?

Sure. I'll post it when I get home from work

could be bad ram oc timing & voltage setup/ gpu drivers iteself, turn off ram xmp clock mode via bios uefi, also you might to reset default config to factory setup, i dont know abt your mobo but on my mobo msi, i just press f6 to reset all config, you can also replug cmos manualy for reset

Thx I will try disabling the xmp mode when I have time this weekend.

So the xmp mode has been disabled the whole time by default.

Battlepants in the event viewer, can you go to windows logs > application? There should be a failure there where the app crashed.

In that log it will tell you where the fault was, so that will help narrow down the issue.

basically just says it lost power unexpectedly?
nothing stood out to me in the applications tab

41 63 is unlikely to be a hardware issue, often drivers or windows 10 power management, if you have all your chipset/Lan/Graphics drivers up to date (if not then update) then go into windows power management (System >>> Power & Sleep >>> Additional power settings) and make sure all hibernation/sleep states are off and you are set for high performance, once everything is geared towards max power performance, reboot and test.
