Thank you, but this issue has been going since before any spilling. I did a clean install to see if it was a software issue, went backo to previous bios, and changed most of the hardware. I see in windows event viewer a critical error when it happens. Event ID 41 task category 63.

sorry for rezzing a dead thread but I'm experiencing a similar issue. I have a custom watercooled system with the following specs: ryzen 9 5900X EVGA 2080 ti XC2 ultra with a vertical GPU riser Asrock X570 Taichi on bios 4.0 Corsair Vengence rgb pro 4*8 at 3600 cl 16 (manually input the XMP profile) Corsair RMx 750w that I had since 2017 sabernet rocket 4.0 2* sabernet rocket 3.0 3 2.5 SSDs 1 HDD here is my issue, sometimes when I'm gaming the system does a hard restart ( the screen goes black and the system reboots with no error codes on the motherboard). is this PSU OCP? another issue is after a cold start (unplugged from the wall), the system does a detect hardware boot similar to when turning on the system for the first time. this only appeared after draining my loop and my GPU block leaked water after cleaning it on the riser cable and card (I cleaned the card thoroughly and it scores pretty high in timespy, Graphics Score 16,602) recently so I think its the riser cable fault and I have a new one on the way. this doesn't happen with benchmarks, only while gaming. it also happens about once a month where even after the hard restart it still occurs after launching the game and playing for about 5-15 minutes. another thing that happens is after the hard restart windows no longer detects my pcie 4.0 ssd. I think also the motherboard bios doesn't detect it, last time this happened to me, the drive showed up in the bios but not in windows. so far I have replaced and upgraded most of my components since this issue started. I upgraded to a pcie 4.0 from a 3.0 drive (I had 3 NVME 3.0 drives) that I thought was dying. I have swapped the rams from 3200 16x2 to 3600 8x4. I have upgraded from 3700X to 5900X. one fix I found is to unplug my PC from the wall and reconnect it after the power drains from the PSU. this fixes my issue with the 4.0 drive not showing up in windows. honestly I'm at the point where I think its either the motherboard or the PSU and I was wondering which one to swap. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

My case is phanteks enthoo pro m and the rad is in the front. I thought about deliding but I think I would do it in 3-4 months when I have free time.

I was able to reach 5ghz on 1.3v adaptive but it was too hot. I live in Arizona and it's hot righ now so that might effect the temps. I'm pretty sure I mounted my aio correctly and it's in push pull but I used the stock thermal compound, so should I change it and if so what should I use?

so just an update, right now I'm running a 4.7 ghz at 1.245v and it seems to be stable with max temps reached 81c while running aida64 for about 4 hours. the only thing I noticed is the pc seems to lag randomly almost like dropping frames for a few seconds, also video playback on chrome stutters frequently. I used windows memory diagnostic tool to check if my ram has been damaged from the over clock and there is no problem detected. Update: i upped my voltage to 1.25v and my lagging problem seems to be gone.

Ok I changed it to 4.9 ghz with 1.275v and it has been running for 25 minutes so far the highest temp it reached is 83c but the core voltage reading is 1.277-1.293v is it normal for manual to do that?

So I set it to a 5ghz as manual with 1.3v and I let aida64 run for a while and the temps reached close to 90c, should I be worried?

1.25v that goes up around 1.3v

So I should test with manual?

ok I will try that, thank you.

is that on manual or adaptive?

hi everyone, this is my first time manually overclocking and I wasn't sure which vcore should I start with and whats the difference between adaptive and manual? I have an asus z270e strix board, a fractal design Celsius s24, a 32gb 3000mhz trident z rgb ram ,and an asus gtx 1080 strix gpu. right now, I used 4.9 ghz on adaptive mode with 1.25v and ran aida64 for an hour without crashing (blue screen but the PC freezes for a couple of seconds) my temps reached to 85c. this is what my system looked like after my test I will do about 4 hour stress test with aida64 but I did not want to waste my time if I screwed something up. one of the things I noticed is that my pc started to lag for a couple of seconds (almost like dropping frames in games but not in game), is that normal?

unfortunately that only controls only the motherboard LEDs

hi everyone, I got g.skill rgb memory that will not turn off when I put the PC to sleep mode. I use asus aura to control it (did not install the gskill software to control because I heard there is conflict with Aura)

hi everyone, I have Asus z270E motherboard and there is a orange LED whenever there is any power in the PC( when it's connect to the wall). is there any way to disable it or should I just cover it with electrical tape?
