Hello, I have been getting a Cache hierarchy error, for about 6 months now. Itll occur seemingly randomly during gameplay, however some games like farcry will crash within 5 minutes of play. I have confirmed newest drivers and BIOS on everything, I have spoken to AMD with little success other than RMA. If anyone has any advice before I start sending hardware back that would be great. 

 

Thank you,

Check memory with memtest64,  let it run 4 hours minimum. 

Do you use XMP? PBO?

Do you also have a motherboard ?

(this is likely ram/mobo issue)

 

Edit: According to here can be CPU issue as well,  so if you have exhausted other options may go this route

Finished the test with no errors. Any other suggestions? Should I try changing the settings for XMP or PBO?

Update, 

 

Far cry 6 was the game crashing most, i moved the save location to my SATA drive rather than m.2, not sure if this means there’s an error with my m.2 drive, it is what’s running my OS.

 

Anyone know how i can test the drive and fix it?

 

 ill remove the drive and check for proper seatage shortly
