Pc randomly crashes while gaming.

[Rylyguy]

So I have a 1650 super oc’ed to +100 on core and +1500 on mem. I ram a stress test on it for 5 hours and it was fine. I have a 10400 and 16gb of ddr4 2666 MHz. So the other day I had been playing cod Cold War for 2 hours and my monitor froze and my speakers started spazzing out. Then both my monitors went black and my pc shut off. It came back on just fine. I started playing Cold War again while monitoring my temps. My cpu was at 58 and my gpu was at 61. After 20 minutes it crashed again. I figured it was just cod because no other game was doing it. Just now I had been playing rocket league for 1.5 hours and it did it. My gpu was at 56 and my cpu was at 51. I have no clue what else could be going on. What do I do? TIA

back off ur memory OC.. 1500 is SUUUUUUUUUPER aggressive, especially on a low end budget card like a 1650.

How low should I set it? And wouldn’t it have crashed while running the stress test if that was too high?

try it at stock settings for a few days/week and if no crashes, then slowly increase core and memory OC until you start experiencing it again.

seriously though, just because it runs fine in benchmarks doesn't mean it's stable, it needs to be tested in several games too, because they don't use all the same resources / have the same requirements... 

 

 

+500 memory 

+50 core 

I'd say, for a start.
