HangUp

This guy was BSODing, which seems like it was happening under general load, but in my case there was barely any load whatsover, it would SHUT DOWN(no BSOD) when stressing the RAM and just the RAM alone. I feel like if anything, the new much more power hungry RX 6800 XT that I installed should be causing the issues, but I've been using it just fine. That's not even mentioning that both of the cpus are in the same class in terms of power consumption (from my small amount of testing, actual power consumption in HWMonitor was about the same as well) and that I extensively stress tested all the parts with NO issues, aside from when RAM was being heavily accessed. Regardless, do you think I should try to RMA the CPU first or do I dive right into it and buy a new motherboard?

I recently underwent a near complete system overhaul, I got a new CPU, GPU and PSU, but as soon I tried to play any demanding game on it, the system would outright just shutdown. The first thing that I noticed when I installed the new CPU, the Ryzen 5 5600X, the system would post just fine, but a second after it started loading into windows it would just shut off, so I thought, hmm, maybe it's just the garbage motherboard that I have, suddenly not liking the RAM speeds after the BIOS update (3000MHz, the mobo is rated for 3200(I told you it was garbage)), so I set the clock speeds to the next best thing, 2933MHz, and lo and behold everything worked just fine. Then I installed the new GPU, the RX 6800 XT. Still worked fine. But when I installed the drivers for it, it would crash the same way as it did before when booting into windows. I started lowering memory speeds again, down to 2800MHz with no luck, at which point I gave up and set it to the default 2133MHz and then it started working again. I could stress test it, even play some decently demanding games for a bit like rust and subnautica at max settings (I did so for at most 10 minutes), but when I tried to do something actually demanding, like playing alyx or warzone, it would shut off every time pretty much as soon as something heavy started loading. To sum up the troubleshooting that I did I: Stress tested the CPU for 20 minutes with CPU-Z, everything was fine Stress tested the GPU for 20 minutes with MSI Kombustor and Heaven Benchmark, everything was fine Stress tested the GPU and CPU at the same time for more than 20 minutes, everything still fine Swapped the GPU to my old GTX 1650 Super, still crashing in games Tried each ram stick one by one, slot by slot, still crashing, though I could boot into windows at it's rated speed of 3000MHz Stress tested the RAM with both sticks installed with Sandra, instant crash, every time Checked for bent CPU pins, there were none, I quadruple checked Tried reseating, and repasting the CPU, still crashing Swapped the CPU to my old Ryzen 5 2600... no more crashing, could use the full speed of my RAM and everything, completed the Sandra memory benchmark just fine, before writing this I was even able to use up all the battery of my quest 2 playing alyx at max settings 120Hz, zero issues no stuttering or nothing. So the question remains, is the CPU or the Motherboard at fault, because I've ruled out pretty much everything else. I personally initially thought it was the motherboard because of how cheap and garbage it is (who wouldn't), but after the CPU swap I don't know what to think anymore. I've been getting mixed answers about this issue so I came here to hopefully get a second opinion and who knows, maybe a fix. I'm currently planning to send back the new CPU for RMA, before I go out and potentially waste at least 100 euro buying a motherboard.

So I've had this issue twice where my gpu doesn't display any image on both monitors after very heavy load. The first time it happened was when my friend wanted to see my progress in borderlands 3 so I tried to screen share on discord and as soon as i did both monitors went black and after about 10 seconds everything came back but some programs crashed/restarted. Then the next time it happened I was playing no man's sky and when I was adjusting video settings it happened again but this time I could hear the game audio also the picture didn't come back this time. So I want to know what is causing this issue, the pc parts are a few days old except the HDD which I used from my previous build. I suspected that it is my HDD because it is atleast 5 years old and pretty slow or my gpu's vram which on both games was at like 3800MB and my gpu has only 4gb.My Specs:GPU: Zotac GTX 1650 SuperCPU: Ryzen 5 2600Motherboard: ASrock B450M HDV R4.0RAM: CMK16GX4M2B3000C15 at 3000mhz

@LukeSavenije Ok I'm sorry I'm still bothering you but what do you think about this https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Power-Supply-Units/vs-series-config-2018/p/CP-9020172-EU 2 people out of 24 said this stopped working after a year on the site I'm buying it from

@LukeSavenije Would you recommend me these https://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-256-Color-Supply-Warranty-PS-SPR-0600NHFAWU-1/dp/B0754YDPZF https://www.bequiet.com/en/powersupply/1693

Does that mean it's good or bad

I have an amd ryzen 5 2600 gtx 1650 super and Corsair vengeance lpx 16gb(2x8gb) 3000mhz ram

It's too late for a new psu I spent all my remaining money on the power supply and other stuff I need for the pc

So I'm building a PC and I recently ordered a chieftec psu and now I was looking at what people had to say about chieftec power supplies after buying it and half of them said that it was bad and I would like to know why... The power supply I got is the gpe-600s it has a decent rating and a 5 star average review from where I'm buying it from (popular online store in my country)
