Hi guys, 

I've been having some issues with my ryzen build.

I'm using my computer mainly as a gaming pc but lately it's been crashing a lot. When i'm running an intensive game (witcher 3, farcry 5) my pc will just restart. No graphic glitches, no sound glitches. 

So i've been updating everything i could find. New graphic drivers, new motherboard bios, everything.

Eventually i thought it might be the overclock on my memory (corsair LPX 3000MHz)

So i turned it down to 2133 MHz and my crashes seem to be gone.

The problem i'm facing now is figuring out if this was my motherboard not supporting this memory, the memory being glitchy or maybe a powersuply problem.

Does anyone have an idea on how to check this?

 

CPU:       Ryzen 5 1600

MoBo:     Gigabyte AB-350 Gaming 3

Mem:      corsair LPX 3000MHz 8Gb

GPU:      Sapphire RX480 8Gb Nitro+

PSU:      CoolerMaster G550M

SSD:      intel 600p

Try the RAM at 2933MHz rather than 3000 while keeping the timings same. 1st gen Ryzens have problematic memory controllers, it takes luck to get reach 3000MHz or above.

I'm not using manual overclocking on my memory, just using the XMP profile. Before I did the bios update (f8 to f22) it ran at 2933. the new bios turns the xmp to 3000 though.

The problem was happing at both speeds :(
