New Gaming PC Crashing

[Clay Rauch]

I built a new PC about a year ago. It has been working well up until about a month ago when I upgraded my graphics card. Now, games crash often, it blue screens, it lags, etc. nothing changed except the graphics card. I did realize that the UPS I had it plugged into wasn’t providing enough power, but that has not fixed all the issues. 
 

SPECS:

Motherboard- ASUSU Z690-e wifi

RAM- G-Skill Trident Z 6000 64gb XMP

CPU- Intel 13700KF overclocked to 5.8ghz

SSD- Samsung Pro 1tb M.2 PCIe

GPU- EVGA 3090 FTW3

PS- Corsair RM1000

 

does anyone know things I should check? I reinstalled windows, reset my overclocks, new thermal paste, reseated RAM and GPU, and ran the windows integrity violation check from command prompt. All drivers and windows are up to date. Stress tests seem to work fine. Cinebench scores are normal. Only bluescreens when I try to do something like turn memory integrity on/off for example (bluescreened twice and finally got it to work on the third try). Computer also likes to randomly restart with no warning when games crash.

Did you try running it without XMP?

 

Which blue screen errors are you getting ?

I’ll let you know if it happens again. I’ll try turning XMP off. Thanks for the reply

Upload your minidump files here. Someone will tell you what is causing the bsods.

It was the XMP. Why would it work fine for months and suddenly start causing issues? Can I use XMP but set the clock lower than 6000mhz or should I just leave it as auto?

I don't know, it happens, just roll with it. If that's the problem the fix is easy.

 

You can use xmp and then manually lower the frequency a bit indeed. Maybe try 5600.
