    Whats probably happening iss you are fixing the problem and rebooting at some point, then windows kicks off update and re-ruins what you just fixed, making yoou fix it again. At the very least you have some kind of file corruption and II would back up your important stuff at this point before it fails unrecoverably. If that goes well, then reinstall windows and work from there.

    - I don't know if that laptop come with Nvidia Optimus, if yes check if the game actually running on Nvidia GPU instead of Intel iGPU. 
    - Check temperature
    - Check Power Option
    - Don't game on battery
    - Update to latest driver

    that seems in line with a mobile system with only a 1060 in it

    turn it off of ultra if you need the fps to be higher

    Hi Guys,
     
    I recently built a new pc and I would like to ask you some things regarding performance and over-clocking the system.
     
    1) I have OCed an i5 8600K from 3.6 Ghz to 5Ghz and runs extremely well at 1.35Voltage
    2) I OC my Trident Z 8Gb (2x4) at 3200 Mhz.
    3) I bought the MSI RX 580 8 Gb , which runs really smooth. I overclocked the GPU to 1450 Mhz and Its memory to 2050 Mhz. 
     
    Regarding the Temperature I have attached two pics.
    - Idle operations
    -Under Load operation
    - As well as the difference between the normal operation and the Over-clock status of the PC.
     
    Could you kindly provide me some feedback as to the information provided above?
     
    1)Is it good, is it bad?
    2) Is it overworking or under-working?
     
    Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
     
    Surprisingly I get an average of 100FPS on PUGB with all the setting low, except from the Texture that is on Ultra and I have to say that it looks awesome, especially with Free-sync and 1ms motion  blur reduction.

    Im not sure how things work for india but maybe if you got some on amazon and tried them then you can return them straight after if you dont like them ? its a shame audiotechnica doesnt have any stores to try them out at

    I'm Using m50x and they are very reliable and still going strong with excellent sound quality, Cant speak for the m40x and m30x but overall impression of audiotechnica is very positive !

    Man its got to be audiotechnica ath-m50x's 
    Mine have lasted me 2 years already and are showing no signs of wear or tear. great for edm and if your tastes change all you have to do is change the eq on your phone/pc and then they are good to go. The headphones are studio quality so are designed to output exactly what the song was meant to sound like with no effects or bass boost (some can be added if you want  ) and build quality is outstanding 
    A solid pair of headphones

    Joe D reacted to Octavialicious in Will a amp make my headphones sound better?   
    Not on those headphones, spend money on getting better headphones for now.
     
    AMP makes the signal stronger (louder) and a DAC is a digital to analog converter (an ideal setup has a seperate dac + amp or a combo unit)

    This should be under Operating System, not storage.
    But there could be numerous reasons why this crash/recovery occured. Did you get any logs, maybe a minidump.dmp ?
    Anything in your Event Viewer that shows the error?
