Update: Yesterday, I swapped his CPU with mine (we both have the exact same AMD Ryzen 5 3600). It's been 24 hours and his system is rock solid, but what's strange is, mine too... We have the exact same CPU, and his crashes only in his system. How is that possible??? Anyway... We will continue to test that. If anyone have an answer to this strange behaviour, I'm all ears!

RAM in slot 2 and 4: yes BIOS up to date: no, shouldn't really need to (especially since I tried two motherboard from different manufacturer). Just updated it to the latest version, still crashes. XMP enabled: yes. Just tried disabling it and the computer still crashes. Chipset drivers: installed and up to date (all drivers are up to date according to Windows Update and DriversCloud)

Hello everyone, I'm having some trouble with a computer that I built for a friend. I tried reinstalling Windows multiple time, swapping parts with my own computer and we even changed the motherboard since, at the start, it looked like it was the network card (but probably wasn't). I am now at a lost and don't really know where to search. Sometime, my friend can game for hours without any problem, other time, it crashes quickly after login. Like the sticky post for BSOD asks, I have multiple minidump files, but I can't run "perfmon /report" since it crashes every single time (with different BSOD messages). I have included the minidump for the perfmon crash too tho, if that can help. If you want me to run any other test or try something, I will gladly do it. I can also swap parts with my own computer since I have the same CPU (it's just a pain since I have a mini-ITX case...). It's his first computer and it isn't a good introduction to PC gaming if it crashes non-stop...

I wouldn't recommend that. Turning off your computer by unplugging it is a really bad thing (like holding the power button). Maybe try what @Legendarypoet said.

Thanks, I will check that out!

Hi everybody, I live with my brother and we have a 25 Mbit/s internet connection (25 up and 25 down with Bell Fibe) and the connection is almost always stable. My brother always plays CS:GO and every time I watch a YouTube video (at 720p, 60 fps when it's available), he always complain about his ping rising and lowering (from 40 ms to almost 150-200 ms). It does the same effect if I download something at 2 MB/s (limited to that so it doesn't block everything). I know it would be normal for a download, but for a video? I want to know if this is normal or not, and if I can tweak my router setting so it can prioritize cs:go (I tried with QoS, but maybe I did it wrong). My router is a Asus RT-N66U and my brother and I use Windows 10 PCs, both connected with CAT-5e wire (so no wifi). Thanks in advance for your answers!
