£1850 Budget for Gaming Rig, Monitor snd Rift Bundle.

Those are the messages I get when I try to run real bench. The system error comes up immediately and then when IO click ok I get the instability detected down the bottom.

Any ideas?
 
My little boys currently playing sims4 without issue so far. I dont suppose sims is very taxing but my temp while he is playing are cpu 47 gpu 52.

I was just playing the division at 2556x1440 @75hz all on ultra and it run without issue. Both gpu and cpu were around 61c, is this ok?

I was running the "stress test option when I got dll message, its confusing because the one you pic turns grey and the unselected one turns red, it looks like I've selected benchmark in the pics because its red but its actually the stress test.

I wll try firstrike tomorrow and also the ram voltage, you will need to talk me through the ram voltage if you don't mind gents.

Chat soon,

No problem - and those temps are fine.

It's could be game specific - not unusual, but could equally/oddly still be caused by hardware.

Did you have issues with this game before the 'restore point'?

This was the first time i had really played it, inran it before and meesed with the setting and gad a quick blast but didnt really play it.

What is the memtest? I dont remeber running anythong like that before?

You may not have to yet - but it's a program that needs to be left to run for a few hours as it tests the memory using a lots of algorithms in a series of test patterns. And although it may be error free after one pass it may very well fail on pass 4, 7 or 8 etc so it needs a good amount of time to run a decent amount of passes.

*But the trouble with memory is, even if were to pass, you still can't rule the sodding stuff out if your problems were to persist (memory can be a bitch).

But, for now you're using the XMP and manually set to 2933MHz? So you shouldn't be having any issue - but you could drop to 2133 and test BF1. If it doesn't crash then we try and tweak the memory via DRAM voltage to 1.4V and perhaps upping SOC to 1.1V - if it still fails then personally i would question the memory as i've not had any sticks run less than 2933MHz @ 1.35V

Ok mate, i wont be on till about half 8 tonight but I will have a pook then.

Haven't got the EA origin Overlay on by any chance ?

Im not sure, i will check. I think ive only got the nvidia FPS overlay onnbut I will confirm. Im guessing the overlay option will be in the main origin settings.

Its weird that the divison runs fine now when it was that the division that was shutting the system down before when I was pressing the map button on the keyboard or controller, strange.

Evening Chaps,

So I turned the "origin in game" selection to off which is something to do with friends list and things like that and the game ran without issue, I got much further than before and everything seems fine? I was running at 2560x1440 @75hz with everything on Ultra but I had DX12 off, I'm guessing I want this on? Obviously I don't have any online PC friends at the minute but if I do decide to add some how much am I limiting what I can do by having to have the "origin in game" option off?

Also is it normal for the FPS to drop to 37 during the cut scenes in BF1?

I'm going to download memtest and see what happens, I'm going to do that now and leave it running for a few hours and I will report back.

Thanks for your help so far guys.

Edit: Sorry chaps, showing my lack of knowledge here. Ive download what I thought was memtest and extracted but its given me something called imageusb and them memtest.usb image.

What am I supposed to do with this, I'm lost:)

Sorry for late reply, been aweful few nights with smallest kid ...

Ok, now you for sure it's not hardware related ! You want to try running the Game with DX12 turned on and 'in Game' turned on .
See if you get t same crashing as before !
If it does crash, again turn off 'in Game' but keep DX12 and see how it fares again .

Hope the kids are good mate?

I will try that and see how I get on, wont be tonight now but I will jump on tomorrow and see what happens.

Chat soon,

Good Morning Gentlemen,

How have you both been?

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, a couple of my lads are on holiday and I'm short staffed, been pulling 12 hour + days lately!!

I jumped on Battlefield this morning with in game mode on and DX12 on and played for a couple of hours without any crashing!! The only slight issue would be the frame rated dropped to anything between 45 - 75 when there was loads going on on screen.

Temps are all good too!!

Can we try some small overclocks now? Would that help with the frame rate drops I was experiencing?

Cheers lads, hope you're both well.

Chat soon,

Hey mate, good to hear ! Yeah BF1 is intense when a lot of action happens and the Game loves CPUs with lot of cores ! Overclock should help nicely , may not give you massive frame increase, but should keep Min Frame rate higher . Should also allow ram to hit 3200 , again should increase in frame rate by 1/2 FPS .

Trying to remember my settings , though this was for 3.95ghz on the board .

I'm totally in your hands on this one mate, I'm not changing a thing without your approval lol :)

I've got Afterburner, is that what we use to do the overclock or do I need a different program?

Are we going to sort out the ram speed aswell then? I want to see how much performance I can safely get out of this thing now :)

Chat soon.
