What's dying?

[RoroTheDeer]

Hey everyone,

 

I've recently been having a few issues with my PC. I've had two blue screens in the last three days and my fps in games has gone down quite significantly as well (180fps to 120fps in Overwatch and 350fps to 210fps in CS:GO).

 

Google Chrome will also lock up and not respond from time to time.

 

I've already produced a backup so there is no worry in losing data.

 

Thanks a bunch in advance!

Specs? Settings? Have you changed anything recently (drivers)? Have you checked hardware usage in Afterburner (or a similar tool)?

Your Windows is dying. Do a fresh install (or if you don't want to I would advice running something like MBAM).

Hard to say at this point. could just be a driver or other software issue. Windows updates love to break things suddenly. It was a good idea to backup. Follow this guide and you can get more information on the blue screens. https://www.digitalmastersmag.com/magazine/tip-of-the-day-how-to-find-crash-logs-on-windows-10/

 

Basically wait and see if it gets worse and if it does pay attention to when it happens and what you were doing. At this point I need more to go on. Full specs on your system would also help.

If its a windows problem caused by updates it will not help. Way to early for a reinstall in my opinion.
