"Random" restarts

• Ryzen 7 3700x
• XFX Triple dissipation rx 5700 xt
• 32gb G Skill Trident RGB 3600
• Asus ROG Strix B450-F ATX (BIOS is current)
• Phanteks Revolt Pro 850 Watt
• NZXT Kraken X63

Ever since I built my computer (about 2 months) it has had a problem with unprompted / random restarts with no BSOD or other error message. These restarts almost always happen when I am trying to play minecraft, and it recently did it while playing gmod. I mention the part about those games because I can run CAD and other more intensive games all day with no restart problems. I have even tried running back to back stress tests and had no luck in triggering a restart.

 

I originally tried a fresh windows 10 (pro, 64 bit) reinstall. After that failed to help I replaced my power supply with the 850 Watt unit listed above. This did not fix the problem. I have also confirmed that it is not my ram by switching between the two kits that make up my 32 gigs. 

 

Another thing to take note of is that I am unable to run the included XMP profile as it does not stick after saving in bios. I have also experienced instability when overclocking the gpu beyond stock (restarts experienced at base clock), which is why I replaced the PSU ( I thought it was a wattage problem).

Turn off PBO in your BIOS, see if they still occur. PBO has been known to do this. 

 

Precision Boost Overdrive in AMD OVERCLOCKING settings.

While this did fix my problem with the xmp profile enabling, it did not fix the restart problem. Are there any other possible solutions?

Have you updated the bios?

I have the most recent version of the bios. It has now randomly restarted on the desktop as well.

I seem to have ended up with a similar situation.

I too am getting random restarts with PBO enabled. my system is 5600x with x570 though. maybe limiting the max boost clock in PBO will help, I need to do more testing. most of the time it is just straight black screen instant restart, but some of the time it tells me whea uncorrectable error bluescreen.
