Pc issue that I can't figure out

MCFC_ANDY · 17 Dec 2019 at 14:33

My pc goes haywire when I boot to windows or play a game. I've stripped it down and reinstalled godknows how many times but still haven't got to bottom of it. Doesn't matter if stock not overclocked and sometimes I get signal to display but black screen.
There's a YouTube link

My best advice right now would be to slow that RAM down. Try turning off DOCP and just run it at standard 2133MHz and see if the problem continues.
Ryzen is finicky with RAM anyway, and you're running a 3000 set at 3200.

You should get 3000 out of it- with extra soc and ram volts- but I wouldn't fancy pushing past that. I think this is where your problems lie...

Does the mobo have onboard graphics if so take out GPU and try with onboard.

Don't think the 1700 has onboard...

Looks like a GPU/cable issue to me, try another GPU.

I have tried stock memory and overclocked. It makes no difference. I've reset bios as well. Nothing seems to change it. There is a hdmi on board but I don't think the tomahawk b450 has onboard gpu

I was thinking cable. But had this issue for ages in past. Then suddenly it went. Strangely after I changed the OS SSD for an nvme one. Maybe just coincidence

tbh not as i run through my tv and doont have another, i try cable, and see if makes a difference though, though cant imagine cable degrading, cant be gpu as thats fine even overclocked. i report back once i try changing a few things out

i have tried new decent hdmi cable, so guess leaves me with tv, as the gpu is fine, have no issues in games.

finally figured it out, was nitro hdmi issue, bought a DP to hdmi and works a treat, dont really want to go without my vega 64 as havent a cpu with onboard graphics, so have to grin and bear it
