[nimrod16]

Hi.

I got the Sapphire nitro + 7900xt a few days ago and ever since I swaped my GPU to this card my pc just freez randomly forcing me to restart from the button.

I have uninstall the drivers with DDU it didn't help.

Below is my build.

What could be the problem?

What PSU do you have?

Is there anything in event viewer?

Does the PC freeze in all situations or e.g. only when idle, or only when gaming?

What card did you upgrade from?

I have 850w corsair

Where is the event viewer?

It freezes moslty in games.

I have re seated the gpu re pluged the cables and updated bios and windows.

Also cranked up the fans in the case and on gpu.

So far no issues.

Might be worth testing with just one of the RAM kits installed. Is there a reason you went with 2x 16GB kits as opposed to one 32GB kit, asthetics?

Try your best to figure out why the freezes are happening

Is it only one game, is it when there's load on the GPU, when it's idling?

I wouldn't rule out drivers, but how old is your PSU?

Can you run something like occt without crashing?
What happens if you lower the clocks a bit, is it more stable?

How does the PC freeze, is it artifacting on the screen, etc?

Are there any event logs that help you?

The reason was that it was cheaper to get 2x16 then 2x32

I have re installed the gpu, updated the mobo bios also i am running my fans on full speed and the fans on the card, so far no issues.

It might have been only a bios incompatibility, i was 20 versions behind so it wouldn't surprise me.

Wow, 20 versions is quite a way behind xD
I'm surprised there weren't more issues tbf
