Seems to have been a long term GPU driver issue. Since updating to the latest May release I had basically no problems anymore ...

I was thinking power issue as well, that's why switched to a new power supply. And it did improve the situation but not solve it. And with a new mainboard and power supply there really isn't much left in case of power management other than voltage regulators etc. on the GPU itself. I am not sure if those could cause such a sporadic issue that's not tied to a specific load. I did not use DDU but it was a completely fresh windows installation and the drive was wiped clean before.

What would be the point of this forum if all information could already be found in other places of the internet? Imagine the only reply to every topic being: "Just try searching the internet". Is that your goal? Game support makes no sense if the problem occurs in multiple games ...

Saying "search the internet" is not help. Especially not if you repeat it 3 times ... If you go to the doctor with headaches and he says "take some ibuprofen" with you answering "I already tried that" but he keeps saying "try some ibuprofen", would you feel like he helped you?

No offense but please stop suggesting web searches, it is not helpful. As I already stated, I spent hours if not days searching the internet in every way possible, no matter how far fetched. Game requierements? Except Helldivers 2 these are not new games and I used to play them on this exact maschine without any problems. I exceed all minimum requierments.

New Mainboard came with the latest BIOS. Tried multiple BIOS versions on the old mainboard, made no difference. Windows as well as all games/drivers are up to date. Scannow also did not change anything, but as I said I already did a whole fresh Windows Install and nothing changed.

Did that as well. As I said, web search turned up nothing. Otherwise I wouldnt have asked for help here. I searched Hardware + game specific Hardware specific Game specific Problem specific

Thanks for the suggestions. At this point, any help is appreciated ... Temperatures are all far in the green MemTest is a good idea, I will give that a try Event Viewer is as cluelss as myself. It only states that the system was shut down inproperly but does not state any specific reasons. DirectX and C++ have been tried with multiple versions incl. the lastest, also no luck there Already spend hours on web searches for both generic problems as well as game specific. Could not find any information that fits my problems. For Helldivers 2 there are some recommendations regarding graphic settings and other stuff I tried but nothing helped. For the other problematic games I couldnt find anything that helps either.

Hi everyone, I am getting pretty desperate here after having problems with my computer for months. I hope somebody has any ideas how to fix this. Problem: Computer runs fine on desktop or while streaming etc. but in certain games the GPU driver will keep crashing without any special reason. Up until crashing the games run fine with normal FPS but once the driver crashes the Computer freezes. Most times I can continue playing without any problems after a few seconds. Sometimes the game crashes and in rare occasions the whole computer resets (no bluescreen or anything). What I have tried so far: Updating GPU drivers obviously (multiple times over the last months) Fresh Windows Installation Resetting BIOS and deactivating DOCP profile on RAM Deactivating Smart Access Memory I even switched out some Hardware which improved the sitation but did not solve it: Swtichted the Mainboard from ROG Strix X570-E to a ROG Strix B550-F after noticing the PCIe Slots were making trouble on the old Mainboard -> Fewer crashes since then Switched out the 11 year old Dark Power Pro 10 750W power supply for a Dark Power 13 850 --> Now Fallout 4 runs without any problems, before it would crash almost immediatly Still having problems in the following games: World of Warships, War Thunder, Helldivers 2 I am running out of ideas, please help ...

On Amazon Germany you can find Cables by CSL Computer. They are cheap and still good quality. I‘ve been running some of them for years without any problems.

Should work, I don't know for sure though. I think you'll just have to try it. About the Bitfenix Spectre Pro: Really nice and good fans, but a bit loud above 60-70% rpm. They do really move air then though.

I'm from Germany, but I'll stick to english so anyone can keep up 1440p is possible with your setup, depending on how high you want your settings, but I think it won't be long before you will need a new GPU for a satisfying experience. So I'd choose 1080p as well. First of all I would cross off the Lenovo one because it has 8ms GtG response time which is way too much for a gaming monitor. A note to the Acer monitor: It's "frame in frame", so there is a very small plastic frame around the "glass" and the real frame sits underneath it. Some people don't like that, so consider it. Personally I'd go with the HP monitor because it has a real 8 bit Panel, the Acer is only 6 bit + FRC.

I've seen this problem twice in my life. The first time it was a friends computer and we actually never found out what the problem was. Even the professional computer shop he bought it from a few years earlier didn't find anything, so he ditched it after a while. The 2nd time it was a OEM Vista PC. There I was able to find out that the official Nvidia Driver was actually the problem. If I installed anything newer than a specific version it would just randomly freeze after a while like you said. I'm not sure though if this applies in any way to you, since you run a current gen GPU. To be sure that it's not the GPU or the software in any way, maybe just take it out, uninstall the driver and try running it on the integrated GPU? Otherwise my guess would also be RAM.

There's actually an ancient video from Linus about this with a HD 6990. There you can see it nearly doesnt matter at all:

Greetings Members, yesterday I decided to install one of my old favorites: Brothers In Arms - Road To Hill 30 Unfortunatly I have a lot of artifacts and flickering in the start menu and the game itself. Searching the internet quickly gave some solutions, but none of them really solved my problem. The game is the german version, patched to 1.11 (older versions did not work either). So here's what I've tried so far: - Compatibilty Mode (all of them) + Run as admin -> no difference - change the bia.ini (UseHardwareTL = False) -> fixed the graphics problem, but resulted in unplayable 2-3 fps - all the related instructions from PC Gaming Wiki (https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Brothers_in_Arms:_Road_to_Hill_30) -> agaín, fixed the graphics problem, left me with 2-3 fps I am running Windows 10 with all the latest drivers including GPU driver, PC specifications as listed in my signature. I would be very thankfull for any help, I love this game and have not played it in years.
