Really getting angry now.

[Venomz1337]

I got a new pc and all I've been having is problems, problems and more problems. Today, I got a blue screen from Splinter Cell: Conviction and according to windows, it was something to do with input I/O (I'm guessing my peripherals). I then decided to play some Garry's Mod where I get random fps drops. I then decided to play Overwatch (DayZ mod), still get fps drops and then 5 minutes ago, I played some counter-strike 1.6 and I get fps drops. What the hell is going on? I've tried so many things yet no results. I stress tested my GPU for 50 minutes and the highest temp was 82. I stress tested my CPU and the hottest core was at 41. I really don't know what to do now, any last suggestions I could try?

Hottest core 41c while stressing it o.O thats odd. Try updating GPU drivers.

usually occurs from running 24/7,if not then I wouldn't see, you should describe any possibility which is causing this issue that isn't hardware related

I have no idea what could be causing it :/

What's odd? and I'm doing so now, I'll get back with results.

Is this your first build? Have you ran any synthetics and if so, how long?

 

Your CPU should also be much hotter than 41c load..

I run my pc 24/7 usually restart 2-3 times a week that's it. Time running has nothing to do with it. Booting a pc from cold put more stress on it than leaving it running for like 6 hours.

This is my first build and I haven't really ran any synthetics. I did Prime95 for 10 mins and got the 41 degrees and did FurMark for 50 mins and got 82 degrees.

the hell with the link? also, occurs from running 24/7? what the hell man

That cannot possibly be right. Download Core temp and prime it again for a few minutes to confirm. You haven't overclocked anything at all either, correct?

 

What is your room temperature? Try Aida 64 or Intel burn in test to check your temps. Prime isn't all that great.

 

While you're at it, go download OCCT, you will be needing that.

I think I may have found the cause of the lag, I did install a network card into my PC (some cheap 12 quid one) and I don't know if that's the problem but I'm getting lag spikes in game.

exactly, I used to run my PC 24/7 no restarting and then it started getting blue screens

BSOD- Super Breakfast :D

That's caused by an unstable overclock man not the 24/7 running of your system, it's just stable enough to handle a few hours at most, one day you'll be busy listening to music and get a random BSOD and wonder why.

[alpenwasser]

A properly set up system will run stable 24/7, I've been doing it for the

better part of a decade (and two years of that was @ 100% load, zero issues once it

was all set up), not to mention all those machines on which the internet runs (I

don't think the internet is rebooted every few days ;) ).

EDIT: To clarify: My point is not that internet servers never shut down, but

that there are many of them which have been running for 24/7 for extended periods

of time without issues. Not all of them, but certainly many.

/EDIT

As for OP's problem: PCI-E slot devices can be finicky. I've had issues with GPUs

not running in certain PCI-E slots, for example (Asus board), so I recommend investigating

that route more.

Also: What's your setup (CPU, GPU, OS version, driver versions, voltages, cooling

solutions, ambient temperatures, case fan setup and all that stuff)? Without that

info helping to diagnose your problem(s) is kinda difficult. 41 C does seem to be

too good to be true for synthetic stress testing IMO.

EDIT: NM, I'm assuming it's your sig rig?

the internet is a major network between computers, it doesn't run off a single base located somewhere. I think you meant search engines like google. Even then, they have backup servers for their buckups backups backups backup... so you wouldn't know if one of their servers crashed.

so mate did removing the network card do anything?

[Shrubpig]

Do you have any parked cores? That could be why you have such a low under-load temp.

I know, I know. That's the point of redundancy. I admit I was oversimplifying

things a bit. Still, I stand by my experience that a well configured system

(running on intact hardware and assuming no critical bugs in software) must

run without stability issues @ 100% for 24/7.

I didn't remove it but I plugged another cable into it and it seems to be doing the same, I think I'll just try on board ethernet.

 

Anyway, here's a 10min benchmark;

Sorry man, I was just correcting your statement of the internet not going down etc etc because that just plain reads as false info, I agree with the 24/7 stability though. been building computers since I was 12 and never shut down my computers if it wasn't necessary lol.

Please use intel extreme tuning utility for stress testing haswell.

Edit: err just noticed it's not even really overclocked, remove the network card and test stability again please.

Those load temps are really low even for having an H100i...

Ok, 48c is more reasonable. Run OCCT stress test on your CPU. Set it to automatic for one day, 64 bit and use all logical cores.

 

If the test successfully stops itself, you'll know it's not your CPU and you can move on to test your GPU.

although I agree, I think he should remove the network card first as those things consistently cause trouble.

No problem man, I've added an annotation to correct my statement into what

I was actually trying to say.

@OP: Agreed, try out onboard ethernet and see what that does.
