Posted August 12, 2019 The start of the whole issue is just so weird, I had a stable OC running on my vega 56 for like 2 weeks and when I decided to install 3 case fans, my system literally started dying. Initially, I got a freezing with a buzzing noise and shortly after the freeze a nice little: "THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER" BSOD. Okay then, I reinstalled windows (completely wiped the hard drive) and after that I only got freezing and no BSOD. I tried unplugging the case fans, removing the OC, reseating the card, changing the pcie cables, reinstalling drivers, reverting driver versions, all with no success. The entire PC is brand new, 2 weeks old, no used parts. Specs: b450m pro-m2 msi vega 56 airboost ryzen 5 2600 corsair vengeance dual channel 16gb 3000mhz corsair tx650m 80+ gold psu (650w should be plenty for this system, it's what AMD recommends for vega 56.) Before installing the case fans I never had a crash, but now even without the case fans I get frequent crashes under load. Please someone help me.

I don't see how the fans would cause the BSOD or freezing. Any other hardware/software changes lately? Maybe try updating MB drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know right, it shouldn't. But that's literally the only thing that was changed recently. No software/hardware has changed except the case fans.

Posted August 13, 2019 Author Solution: Don't daisy chain pcie cables especially with vega. Using 2 separate pcie 8 pins fixed the issue. EDIT: Nevermind, it worked for a day but i still get freezes.

EDIT: Nevermind, it worked for a day but i still get freezes. Whenever there is a random-seeming issue, I tend to suspect the Random Access Memory. Normally I would suggest using the computer with only a single stick of RAM and seeing if the problem continues. I am aware that there is no way to accurately repeat the error in your case, perhaps a Prime95 memory stress test overnight would do. In a case like that, you would test each stick of RAM individually. However, you stated you bought new RAM, and while DOA is possible, I tend to trust Corsair. So in this case, I would ask what BIOS version is running on your B450m. I notice on the MSI support page here (https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450M-PRO-M2) that once the Ryzen CPUs came out, there were a few memory compatibilty fix revisions. Perhaps try a different revision, though please note that flashing a BIOS should only be done once you are well prepared and informed, as a bad flash can brick a board in extreme cases.

Posted January 10, 2020 Hello CharlesM2020 Already answered on a similar post but for future use, i'll just post it here again : Thanks for the good advice, yes I have more than one stick, I have a x4 kit for a total of 16Gs (i know, i know, not the best solution, but I had to do with what was available back in 2015 when I knew nothing) I'll try overnight to do the Prime95 memory stress test and i'll get back to you for more info. Thanks again ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 11, 2020 Hello again ! So, played for 6hours yesterday, did the stress test afterwards, 8hours during the night, and nothing. It's just so random... I hadn't the problem for months, and this one time it came back, maybe it will not show up until another month or so. It's a real mistery. Let me know if you have any other idea. Thanks !

Posted January 30, 2020 Hello, Sorry bothering you again with this, but it went calm until now. Just did it again, that d*mn crash. There is no typical behavior for this. It's so random. If anyone has any idea... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
