PC Crashing/Restarting when put under load.

[gordo865]

It just started last week. I had been playing the new Call of Duty and started getting these crashes where the screen would go black and the computer would restart. Tried playing Spider-Man and started having the same issue so it wasn't just COD being crappy like I thought. Rolled back drivers from the most recent driver to the 522 driver. Issues persisted. Ran a stress test in OCCT and got a crazy number of CPU Power related errors instantly. Restored BIOS settings to default and errors went away, but when left alone for a few minutes when running OCCT the computer blue screens.

 

The OCCT induced bluescreens and the restart crashes all seem to give me the same critical errors in event viewer. Below is the XML for that critical error that I've gotten pretty much anytime I play COD for more than 5 or so minutes. 

 

System specs:

Ryzen 7 5800x

EVGA RTX 3080 10GB XC Ultra 

16GB G.SKILL TridentZ F4-3200C14D-16GTZR

ASUS ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero MOBO

Seasonic FOCUS Plus 750W 80+ Gold PSU

@gordo865 Did you have this issue before?

How long have you owned / used this RTX 3080?

 

I can't say for sure, but given the GPU (RTX 3080) and the particular SeaSonic PSU model and wattage rating, you *may* be running into the issue were the PSU is unable to handle the sudden 2x ~ 2.5x power spike / transient the RTX 3000-series have.

Thanks for the reply. I've had it for about 2 years. Around December or January of 2020/21. It's worked great all this time. Never had any crashing issues. Around that time I upgraded most of my system with the exception of the PSU which I've had since probably April of 2019? This setup has been super stable even with an overclock to 4.7ghz for the last 2 years. CPU has never even approached thermal throttling as I've got a 280mm radiator on it. GPU gets into the high 70's when playing newer games, but nothing that I think anyone would consider unhealthy.
