Crashing.. help.

[JetBlack]

I have had so much trouble with freezing & crashing lately. 

my temps are perfectly acceptable. cpu 40, gpu 70. Have a lot of case flow, high end fans, AIO.

Have tried tests for every component, passes no problem.

All drivers are updated. 

Did a full restore. 

out of ideas. 

Specs are in signature.  

Bare in mind, this all started when i got new RAM, & the AIO. 

Never had crashes before this, literally just crashed playing rocket league on a 2500$ computer & this feels really bad.

im having the same problem with my new build. while gaming, after a bit the graphics crash. i also have the ryzen 2700x and an XFX rx 570. tried reinstalling drivers, rolling back to older drivers. nothing has worked. this GPU worked fine when it was in my older build. Could be something related to the 2700x?

 If you think the problems started with your new ram, then that should be your prime suspect. Try a stress test and see if it passes with the application below.

BlackManINC was right... i overclocked ram from 3200 to 3466 and i havent had any trouble since. thanks man

@BlackManINC I will try the memtest. I did a fresh install of windows today & had a headache of a time with it hah as of why i havnt checked the forums today, ill run the test & report back. i appreciate the help.

@dreamwalker727 Thats odd, i actually tried to OC the RAM when i first got it to 3400 & i beleive thats where my problems started to occur, i reset everything back to defaults and the pc has never been the same since. Can i ask your steps to the OC.? 

[dreamwalker727]

@JetBlack i run the MSI x570 edge mobo, msi makes it really easy to overclock so thats what i used. it also depends on what you set for your ram timing. i used 16-18-18-36

@dreamwalker727 Ah gotcha, this Aorus MOBO, is just.. kinda of messy. The software is very finicky & all i have is XMP & im dont unless i want to do it all manually & from last time i tried i dont think ill attempt it agian hah. My timings are 16-18-18-36 as well stock on the Corsair V- Pro, so i suppose ill just have to be happy with what i have. 

Also @BlackManINC I have managed to do a fresh install of windows & all drivers & for the first time managed to run a game how its supposed to with this type of equiptment, not much but Overwatch played on Ultra 1440p without a problem. Hoping no more crashes.

@JetBlack if it still continues, try clearing and reseting cmos.

@dreamwalker727 I actually did that for the first time today with a fresh install of windows, & i believe (fingers crossed) that it did it. I have yet to have a crash or random reset today; progress.
