    Hey guys. Back again... So The CPU was RMA'd and I got a new one. Tried the new one in the same configuration. Still failed. I have now bought a new motherboard from amazon, ASRock AB350M - something cheap to test with and I am still getting crashes. Any ideas?
  2. Cheesecake87
    Yeah I do, I have a Ryzen 7 with a X370. - I would need to wait until the weekend to swap things out. - such a strange problem. I have a ticket open with the company I bought the parts from, the RMA is for the Ryzen processor (based on the Prime test). I have to have it to them by the 23rd of this month. Could be the mortherboard also, as you said...

    Instantly crashed on 3D Mark - same crash as the video above.
  4. Cheesecake87
    OK - Have done, Will now test.

    I am breadboarding right now. So the earth will be handled throught the PSU grounds. The system still crashed with my RAM installed in it yeah - I also did flash the BIOS, I went from version 402 to 906 or something. Something like that. It was a big jump. I can't find the vdroop setting though... Maybe not a thing on B350? - the image when you scroll down there is a Core Leveling Mode setting.

    Yeah - I have the same RAM sticks in my computer but the christmas tree ones ( RGB ) - I tried them, but Bioshock still crashed. I didn't run a Prime95 on my own RAM though. I havn't increased any voltages. - I do have the newest BIOS. - Yeah, the PSU is awful, but RX560 - I thought, it wouldn't matter to much.
  7. Cheesecake87
    The 560 has a 6-pin PCI-E power connector.
  8. Cheesecake87
    Yeah you are correct. No OC - Yeah, I loaded the BIOS defaults. I am using a Thermaltake TR2 S500W just now, I did however switch it out for a Corsair CX550W for one Prime test and still the same. I tested the AMPs on full load when prime was running and it is pulling 5.8 - not really enough to stress out either PSU really.

    Yup done all those things. Fresh image of Win 10 pulled straight from the media creation tool. - Also I went through a few AMD Graphics drivers. The first time they were right upto date, then I tried to move back to the ones out in July.

    Hello folks, I am having the weirdest issue with a new build computer. Here are the specs first: Ryzen 5 1500X Radeon RX560 Saphire OC 4GB 8GB Corsair V 3000Mhz (running at 2133 during testing) Asus PRIME B350M-A The computer is for my girlfriend and I was taking this opportunity to show her what goes into building a computer. I may have now just put her off for life lol She got 35 mins out of Bioshock Remastered then it crashed came up with the error found in the Att1 attachment. Now I didn't bench or burn-in anything after building ( becuase come-on it's a Ryzen 5 with an RX560 ) - So I logged onto my steam account and installed 3D mark to see if I could stress it. Sure enough after a few runs it crashed. But the crash on 3D Mark says "canceled by user" and other times it cancels on a GPU error. The odd thing is the Radeon window also crashes. Here is a video of the issue: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B918caL_HYSUMGR6dVMtSzZ3QWs ( I tried to upload it to YouTube - it is still processing( - _ - ) I then took the graphics card out and ran 3D Mark on my machine. Everything completed fine, no errors. - So I messed around with graphics drivers, updated to the latest. Then went back to the same ones on my computer. Nope, still crashing. I moved onto Prime95, that was interesting. I will get back to that. - I ran a memtest - Ran 2 tests, both have passed. See Att2 attachment. Prime95, running Small FFT for an hour. Completely fine. Now running in Blend mode, I have multiple worker failures. See Att3 attachment. I have tried overclocking the RAM to fix the issue ( stupid I know, but you get desperate, thinking maybe the RAM needs to be higher ) That just made the Prime95 test worse. - CPU then right? Well, I am just unsure if I am completely honest. Why would it run fine on Small FFT, fail in blend mode; Yet pass a memtest. I am currently running the In-Place test, it is maybe 20 mins in now and hasn't failed. The Blend test failed within a couple of mins at times. Thanks in advance for anyones help

    OK - It is completely solved now. ExpressCard seems to be the keyword there.
  12. Cheesecake87
    Mystery solved. I can sleep now
  13. Cheesecake87
    Yeah, you are probably right. - I looked at the front of the case. There seems to be a little bit of sheet metal that can be philip'd off. - Seems like it will be some IBM/Lenovo thing going on here. Funny that it don't show on a search though. Must have been short a lived thing.
  14. Cheesecake87
    Hmm, you may be correct. - But those are the cards you used to be able to slide into the side of a laptop. The connector on this board is much different.
  15. Cheesecake87
    So I was digging around in the darkest places of my old computer storage, and I stumbled up on this old Lenovo ThinkCentre mini PC. It has an ITX board and was being used as a Linux shop till machine. I opened it up to see the size of the hard drive and noticed a connector I have never really seen before. - It is labled on the board as EXPCARD. I googled around, but still couldn't find what would go into it.... I left it for a couple of days and here I am. Looking at this damn board. Getting fairly annoyed that I can't find what ever could go in there... So hopefully one of you guys on here could help me. I have attached pictures. PC is a Lenovo ThinkCentre 6449 - Model AG8
