[tomeryo]

I just installed a new CPU and motherboard and my games keep crashing what should I do?
specs:
i511600kf
GTX 1080ti

PRIME H510M-E

Reinstall Windows if you haven't yet, it's best practice to do that for a new motherboard, even if it should be fine

 

 

Wait you got a h series motherboard for a 11600kf?

H series motherboard can't overclock.

 

Entire point of buying the chip with the K on the end of the model number is to overclock it.

 

So basically you wasted money on the CPU by cheaping out on the board and got the worst of both worlds.

Unless you're overclocking, probably not. At stock settings, as long as you throw some airflow over those VRMs, it will probably be fine. Even possibly removing power limits if you're adventurous and the board allows it.

 

I'd like to say that you could have saved a few bucks on the 11400, but who knows if that was even available. So on it's own, there's nothing really wrong with it. You just can't multiplier overclock or go past 3200mhz spec, I believe.

 

Did you reinstall OS and see if problems persist?
