RTX 2080 Issues - Crashing!

[PhilSmith]

Just got a blue screen crash using the new RTX 2080.

 

Specs:

i5 - 8600K (Win10)

Asus z370-E

Kraken X52

RTX 2080

16GB Vengeance DDR4

 

Drivers and GeForce Experience up to date.

 

All at default clock speeds.

 

Played for several hours today and R6 Siege crashed then received the blue crash screen. 

 

It was idling at about 50 degrees C and went all the way up to 70-75 before crashing.

 

What in the world is happening?

 

I changed the fan levels to 'performance' through Cam. Also lowered the power for the GPU by a decent amount just to see if it would do anything.

 

Also put a desk fan blowing directly at the PC with the panel off.

 

It's so new, so don't expect to get far, but anyone else experience this?

which evga 650w

[Enderman]

70-75C are perfectly good temps.

Just checked my Cam notifications and it says it reached 80 deg celc via a notification after the crash.

pull out one ram stick and run it on 8gb and see if it still crashes

Can you elaborate what that does?

lot of times a bluescreen on a machine with high amount of chips per stick increases the chance it will hit a part of memory that is bad.

essentially you won't bluescreen just doing normal tasks. but loading the ram up a lot will finally tax the area that's bad causing a bluescreen.

by taking out 1 stick you are simplifying the ram setup from both the rams point , and from the boards point dealing with more than one stick.

if it has any effect at all we know where the issue is.

BUT, that wouldn't necessarily fix the issue of overheating correct? 

 

I'm being told the 70-75 deg is fine, but after rebooting, I had a notification on CAM that said something on the lines of "Your GPU temps hit 80 deg, avoid hitting this high of temps to avoid damaging your gpu".

you aren't overheating

when the card overheats , it'll hit almost 100c and your machine will shut off , no bluescreen , no shutdown , it'll shut all the way off.

what was the error message on the BSoD?

I wish I could reproduce just to get the error message. I wasn't paying attention.

 

I had two versions of Geforce installed. One was installed early August. The other was installed with the RTX. I uninstalled everything VGA related and reinstalled the newest one. 

 

I reseated the memory sticks and GPU.

 

Haven't gotten it again. Not yet at least. I have an H500 case. Everything is a bit crammed in it. The GPU is perfectly spaced in it, but this case has little to no airflow. 

When this happened, I had a desk fan running on it. Still had some heating issues. 

 

So, maybe a new case should be the next buy. I'll need one anyways. 

 

[PhilSmith]

Last temps I noticed were around 75 degrees

Check C:\Windows\minidump

Can't do anything with it. This is new to me.

2080 ti user here. Your issues may stem from Windows 10 October update. Unfortunately I don't have a good fix. Try to restore point if you have one. Otherwise what I had to do was a chkdsk followed by resetting Win10. I think the Nvidia drivers are still buggy and need some major work because framerates are still unstable and the card has a hard time rendering a game and a YouTube video in chrome at the same time. Best of luck!

Download newest nVidia driver

Download DDU

Restart in safe mode

Run DDU

Restart

Install newest nVidia driver

Restart

I'm having similar issues but instead of blue screen I'm just freezing and crashing to desktop.

I've also gone from 400 FPS to 130-190 fps on rainbow and a large drop in  GTA V as well

 

Think that's from the October update as well?

alot of my buddys that upgraded to the 2080 are pissed, and have a lot of crashing and little stupid stuff.  I see vids on youtube too how rushed it was.  Sorry hope u get it fixed ill stay with my 1080ti till they fix it.

No one should be surprised or angry that their new GPU is crashing in games. That's just a part of having bleeding edge tech. The drivers will mature, things will become more stable but you have to wait and deal with the issues. Report the issues to NVIDIA and they will fix what is necessary.

 

Part of the issue with BSODs and crashing is that the cards may be boosting too much. I noticed that without any overclocking or any tinkering on my part that my 2080ti FE was resting at a lower clock speed and boosting to 1950 Mhz, that's 315Mhz faster than the specs say it should be going. Perhaps some cards are not taking well to this and are causing the issues that people are seeing.

Just to let you know I’ve been having the same problem I ordered an upgrade on my PSU as I wanted too anyway now running a 1000w psu.

 

seems to be random times it crashes but certain games crash more quicker than others the worse affender is currently Xcom2 war of the chossesn.

 

i am running 8th Gen intel i7 on a AOrus z370 gaming 7 motherboard heat is not an issue but it does run hotter than my previous 1080 founders but since upgrading to the RTX 2080 ti founders been running into crashes a lot. 

 

I know it’s new and all that believe me I’m used to trying out the latest equipment and having teething problems but this seems very excessive as like you I have tried underclocking running games at lower settings and nothing seems to change it please let me know what mother board you have 

[Cutmire]

Also just to add I was still having crashing problems with my old psu Whitchurch was a 700w

[Cutmire]

I am about to attempt a DDU in safe mode and install drivers without being connected to the net and I’ll let you know if I get any improvement 

[Cutmire]

Ok so far so good guys maybe there was a problem with the original drivers may need them to be removed as so far it’s working beautifully this card is amazing when it’s running I’ll post again if I have any other problems

 

p.s make Shure to download latest drivers and after reboot when DDU is conpleate do not connect to the internet until it’s installed to avails any unwanted driver install

@Cutmire i am having the exact same issues. Which driver version did you install manually?
