Crashing EVERY GAME

[Avocheeseado]

Hi everyone. This is kinda urgent. I have been playing fortnite (yes ik no one here likes it) and every game today I have crashed. It says Error, GPU crash or something like that. I was in a tournament and have lost out on potential money because of it. It also happens whenever I get a friend request or a notification from the epic games launcher. I have tried LITERALLY everything. DDU drivers, updating drivers, updating windows, uninstalling and reinstalling epic games kauncher and i think everything else.

My specs are:

So this happens just with FoRtNiTe or other games as well?

Check temps and try downclocking the GPU.

It has just hapenned in fortnite. I originally had the gpu overclocked but have put it back to original clocks. The temps are 74-78c. I tried underclocking but that didn't fix it.

Is there anything in your case that shouldn’t be there? Is it really dusty? 

maybr your gpu is defective? 

Are you using the dedicated gpu or the one in your cpu?

It isnt dusty at all. I am using the dedicated GPU. that should be a shame if my gpu is defective as they are very expensive.

Have you tried rolling back to old drivers?

It has been happening for about 6 months. Got worse recently. I would have to go bacj to some 8 month old drivers for that

Sorry, forgot to say, this actually does happen in other programs. In my editing software, occasionally and sometimes in one other game which is not graphically intensive at all, but the same error does not come up.

Hi everyone. I know I have posted this before, I am just posting it in the right sub forum now. if a moderator sees this, could they please delete my old one in pc gaming? This is kinda urgent.

Try running memory test with Windows Memory Diagnostic (Win+R, enter mdsched.exe in Run).

[VeganJoy]

could very well be a memory problem, iirc zen 1 and zen + dont like 3200+mhz. some kind of memtest would let you know if thats a problem

I have overclocked my ram from 3200mhz to 3466, but the issue was happening before I did that. I can try reverting.

Well there you go, long story short,  you need new RAM it would seem. 

 

PS: try to RMA your RAM, as far I know they have very long warranty

Ok. I will try running test with just each stick of ram on its own to see if it is just one that is faulty. I have had a look and cant find my exact ram in 1x8gb. Would returning both sticks be an option? And i build my pc 7 months ago so idk if i can still get a refunded

I have contacted amazon and they are issuing a replacement so I hope that fixes the issue.
