Hi All

Need some advise i recently built a new pc with a 9070XT Sapphire Pure and 9800x3d. Im getting strange random crashes when playing games. The screen turns black and the system is unresponsive. The only thing i can do i power the system down and back on. I have noticed the hot spot on the Card getting to 80dc. I have managed to stop the crashes if i lock the frame rate in games to 144 and the hot spot seems a lot lower around 70dc.

I have run Haven benchmark and crash very early on a few cycles in.

Also ran Cinebench for 30 mins multi core no crashes. MAX TEMP 81dc.

Running the latest drivers.

Any suggestions?

Specs below
9800X3D
9070xt Sapphire Pure
Liquid Artic freezer 360
Gigabyte Aorus pro ice X870E
32GB VIPER Elite 5 Gaming DDR5
1000W EVGA SUPERNOVA 80 PLUS GOLD

Thanks Firegod all drivers are up to date and fresh windows install with all updates. Just checked and there is a new BIos but have not updated a Bios in 10 years lol bit nervous of messing it up, Will run Prime95 now to see if it passes.

@ mmj_uk, I previously ran a 6700xt and never had any crashes. It does seem strange once i look my FPS TO 144 i have no issues rock Solid. But if i play unlocked it can crash. Also temps are good around 50-60dc but the hot spot can hit 80dc..
 
just an update run Prime 95 and was stable for 3 hours. Reset the card again and reinstalled drivers. Changes the PCI cables as i had two new ones. The card did pass two hours of Haven benchmark. The card temps were 54dc but the hot sport was still 80dc, Is this normal seems very high?
