EDIT: Okay, as it turns out replacing the CPU did not fix it. Removing the GPU and running on the iGPU did not fix it either - not the GPU. While running on the iGPU I also downloaded HWiNFO, forced Chrome to run on one core at a time, and tested each core with a browser-based stress test. I did not find that any particular core errored. In fact, I did not get an error the entire time I was testing. Not being able to reproduce or "force" the error to occur has been one of the biggest challenges in diagnosing this issue. It seems to be that the error will slowly creep back up ~20hrs after the last reboot. I did not test with a single stick of RAM or replace the RAM but I did run Memtest and did not find any issues with the memory. After doing some more research it seems that the default settings from Asus may be too optimistic for most or, at the very least, some 14900k CPUs. I found that some people on Reddit had success limiting the TDP, overall clock, P-Core clocks, or some combination of all of them. You can find that thread here, I found it peculiar that my Asus ROG Maximus Z790 Hero had the P-core Max Turbo Frequency set to 6Ghz out of the box but Intel ARK lists it at 5.6Ghz. See here, https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/236773/intel-core-i9-processor-14900k-36m-cache-up-to-6-00-ghz/specifications.html I tried dropping the P-core Max Turbo Frequency to 5.7Ghz (before I realized Asus set it way to high out of the box), then to 5.6Ghz, 5.5Ghz, and now I am trying 5.4Ghz. We will see if 5.4Ghz is stable - 5.7, 5.6, and 5.5 were not stable. I also found this article and post helpful. See the article here, https://www.techspot.com/news/101978-newer-high-end-intel-cpus-crashing-unreal-engine.html See the post here, https://www.radgametools.com/oodleintel.htm I just applied the settings recommended in that post (ie SVID, Long/Short Duration TDP, Disable MultiCore Enhancement, Reduce P-Core multiplier). We will see if that finally resolves the issue. I found it weird that the Short and Long Duration TDP settings were both set to 253W by default. If those settings were intended to be the same why would we have the ability to configure them independently? It is also noteworthy that before bringing the P-Core multiplier down below 6Ghz VS Code constantly crashed as well as Google Chrome (makes sense given VS Code is basically Chrome). However, since bring the multiplier down, I really only ever get Chrome tab crashes. Perhaps Chrome has some additional issue with these CPUs and it is unrelated to the overall stability of the chip? More research is needed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I also had this issue with my new build. Chrome, and Edge tabs would die with "Aw Snap!" errors like, STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION and STATUS_BREAKPOINT. I also had Firefox crash a handful of time but did not collect the specific error. In Chrome, Netflix tabs would also crash but with a Netflix error instead of a Chrome error (see screenshot: Netflix error.jpg). There was also some artificing in the Netflix player in Chrome (see screenshot: Netflix player artifact.jpg). I also saw two similar artifacts while playing Factorio (see screenshots: Factorio artifact 1.jpg, Factorio artifact 2.jpg). I tried updating and reinstalling Chrome. No improvement I tried Edge, and Firefox. Same issue in both browsers. I tested my memory. Both DIMMS passed memtest86. I tested the GPU in another PC without issues. Then I read this post and realized it may be my CPU. I ran Intel's Processor Diagnostic and it failed almost instantly on the prime number test. After replacing the CPU and re-running the Intel diagnostic it passed all tests. The Chrome and graphical artifact issues are also resolved. This response from ChatGPT was also helpful in finding resources relevant to my issue.

Looking to play some Rust this weekend. Anyone down? I am located on the US west coast and will be looking for servers in this area to reduce latency. Message me on Steam (hooty203) or add me on Discord (hooty#9231)

If I configured an Apache reverse proxy on the same hardware and instance of Windows that I have the application intended to run behind it on does this defeat the purpose of the reverse proxy?

Anyone on the west coast interested in getting a Rust squad together?
