Ryzen 5 3600 All game freeze for 1 second after every 60 seconds

SanketSonu · September 17, 2019

I have build a new PC. The problem is whenever I play any game, I constantly get freeze or FPS drop after every 60 seconds and FPS comes back to normal after 1second of FPS drop. Example- CS GO FPS drops from 280 to 120 and come back to normal 280 after 1 second. You can easily notice the FPS drop problem in games like CS-GO, but it's hard to find in Dota or any other graphics game, maybe because in CS everything is clear and that game is FPS. But the problem is there for other games too but that is not easily noticeable. I have updated everything. My games are also updated. I formated and installed fresh everything a few times. I even tried changing Vcore voltage from BIOS and changed XMP profile but I'm getting the same issue again and again. This problem starts after 15-20 mins of PC start. I don't think this is Heating issue because everyone is complaining about high idle temp and I have good fans in my cabinet. 3 in front, 2 on top and 1 in back. I'm using stock CPU cooler that comes in Ryzen box. Here is my PC specification:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600

Asrock B450M Pro 4-F Motherboard

ADATA XPG Spectrix D41 RGB 3000MHz 8GB*2 - Red Kit

Asus Dual Geforce RTX 2060 6GB

Kingston A400 960GB SATA SSD

Coolermaster MB511 Non-RGB Chesis

CoolerMaster 550W MWE

CoolerMaster 360R Liquid Cooler for CPU

BenQ XL2411P 144Hz Monitor

Windows 10 Pro (Updated)

When I first, started my PC for the very first time after building and installing all Windows and drivers. I got a bluescreen issue. I have attached screenshots for that but after reinstalling nVidia and few drivers solved that problem. Before that, I had never tested any games on it because that was a brand new PC. After that when I tested i found constant freeze or FPS(ex in CS GO FPS drops from 280 to 120 at come back to normal 280 after 1 second) drop after every 60seconds.

Please help, I have updated everything. I'm getting this issue from start. Is my Ryzen 3600 defect?

My GPU is perfect and max temp for GPU is 58 Degree Celcius while playing CS-Go, Dota 2, Rainbow Six Siege, PUBG PC, etc.

MY CPU temp is 50-55*C when idle and around 65-70 while playing games mentioned above. Everyone said the same temp, so I think it's not a heating issue. My max temp while playing went to 82* Celcius that too only a few times rarely.

After, CoolerMaster 360R Liquid Cooler, my normal temp are under 60 degrees while playing games and 35-40 degree while idle. Cinebench shows 3500-3600 scores and max temp is 70 degrees Celsius. That is good i guess.

Note: I have never overclocked my GPU and CPU. Only changed XMP profile from BIOS for testing but now changed everything to default.

Yesterday, again i installed new windows 10 pro OS after fresh format of my PC and installed all latest drivers and games. But still same issue is happening.

Please Help..!!! Thanks

Have a read through this thread. Another member with an i7 8700k was experiencing the same issue.

As far as the Windows blue screen of death, I have had this a few times since the latest Windows update.

After 2 months of troubleshooting, I found the solution. The problem was with SSD(i use only 1 SSD of 960GB). That was very minor problem which undetectable. After changing each hardware one by one i found the solution. Changed my SSD. Now, it runs perfectly. No issues. Thanks for the help guys.
