Morning Gang,
I am writing to you today as I am having a really frustrating Computer problem and looking for Potential Solutions as I am at the end of my tether L
Im relatively savvy with computers been my job for 10 years and Have built many before in the past, just for the sake of saying.
My current issue is as follows, I can be playing a game for say Player un knowns battlegrounds, and randomly, without any warning, the computer completely shuts off. Black screens no errors no sounds all the lights inside the case power down the pump the cpu the graphics just complete shut off, and unless I pull my plug out of the back and plug it back in like 10 seconds later it wont turn back on.
Before the Whole PSU conundrum falls through I must say, I have run stress tests, Prime 95 and furmark at the same time, for 30 minutes, with no errors, no crashes no stalls, could even watch youtube at same time.
As for the system, currently it is as below
Ryzen 1700 stock 3 ghz have run stable at 3.9 crashes in both instances
16gb Corsair LPX ddr4 ram 2x8 running at stock and oc at 2667 – crashes in both instances
GTX 1080 Msi gaming x, never touched clocks, crashes
Msi tomahawk b350 motherboard
Psu – currently inside the system is a Delta 1100w as it powers my alienware area 51 alx case and came with it, I checked the PSU beforehand all rails run smoothly, all cables look clean and the psu didn’t look like it has been run for much before hand,
Also… tried my corsair 750w PSU that ran my old 4690 system without failure, also crashes…
I have ran benchmarks that have been suggested by different forums and overclockers alike, aida 64 with checking the stability and system stats, all 5v rails and 12 rails never moved or spiked like some I have seen at 17v :/
Its driving me mad simply because there is no warnings, Temps are never high as the processor is water-cooled and at stock speed doesn’t go higher than 48 on stress test, GFX hits like 70 but that’s not an issue, just destroys my computer power off…
Ive been tempted to say it’s a ryzen issue, and throwing it in the bin and buying intel again, But thougth I would come here and seek advice properly. If anyone has anything They want me to try ill give it a go when im back home, but I have tried most things,
Swapping PSU – done
Overclock and stock clock (not tried underclock but why would anyone?)
Removed thermal pastes and re applied
P.s it doesnt always happened, on saturdays sessions, first time i loaded into PUBG it crashes at jumping off the plane, restarted then played 3/4 games perfectly fine then crashed again
Many thanks for reading
