Regular PC freezing and crashing

Your mileage with VRM temp readouts will vary. The only way to really know is to do the Buildzoid method and and get a temperature readout from the bottom of the PCB. You don't actually need to know the temps, though, just if cooling things down fixes the issue.

yeah i guess you're right

Ill do so and notify if it crashes again 

thanks

hmm i found that the second slot doesn't work. That's peculiar ... I guess you should expect that for this type of price...

Oh sorry RAM slots

I decided to switch it up to see if the first one is broken in any way

hmm doesn't seem to be the issue since my pc froze twice in the meantime while browsing youtube

I think its on auto actually

Ill change it to the stock 2400mhz just to be sure

 

the speed does seem to be stable in task manager tho

stock is 1866 almost any newer motherboard will start off @2133 tho

but 2400 is what the rated to OC to @1.2v

 

try keeping the 2400mhz

@1.225v or 1.25v

 

seen if its more stable

if not try 2133mhz @1.225v

mine started with 2400mhz so i didn't decide to modify it

It might vary if its on Auto i think 

 

I also should change the voltage shouldn't I

( I thought they were inter-linked somehow )

then just try giving a small voltage bumb to 1.225 or 1.25

or loosing the timings to something like:

 16 16 16 36

I did the voltage bump but its getting pretty late in my time zone so ill keep you up to date 

tomorrow i guess! Thanks for everything

Hi again!

I switched my ssd to see if it was the issue ( even though i did do all the scans before ), but no.

I think it might also be my bluetooth speaker plugged in. It has a battery that can probably discharge current into the MB.

Normally that wouldn't be an issue but i dont think mine has protection.
