Hi,
I have been getting ONE WHEA error and I'm pulling my hair regarding it.
My computer was almost idling I was talking in Skype for 1 hour and was in the other side of the room, When I then ended the call at the computer it did freeze for about 5 sec and then it start working agin - no BSOD or simuler.
Anyway I did see in HWiNFO64 that I did get a WHEA error.
This was the error:
Here is some more from the details:
As you can see it state CPU but also the Error Source is unknown according to it.
So I started to TS everything just too be sure, I did re-install Windows - I did check BIOS so MSI did not overclock the CPU, I did find something and that was that the P1 was for 4025w (overclockede) so I did change it to 125w that's Intel Default.
I did run memtest64 4-passes over night no issues with the RAM, I did also run OCCT samll and big data for 2 hours each no issue, Did try Prime95 blended for 3 hours no issues there either.
Then I did remember that sometimes my display was flickering so I did check in Event Viewer again and I did find this:
So after some googling it says that it indicate that my GPU is broken I did contact Palit and they told me to replace it. Was talking to the store and I'll send it in and get a 2080 Super as replacement for only 100 Euro extra.
Anyway this thing are getting me paranoid but it has not happened again, no more WHEA errors - should I just call it the day or should I contact Intel or something? OR is it possible that this was caused from the GPU? As the error source was unknown maybe it was from the GPU? The GPU are sending data to the CPU right?
My setup:
MSI meg z490 ace
i9 10900k
64GB DDR4 3200MHz
2070 Super (will soon get replace with 2080 Super)
