So CPU, ram and monitor are new rest of the system as been solid for a long time but the new CPU and higher res screen as let the other handwear stretch its legs so i dont know what to blame

CPU - 5700x3d
Ram - 32gb Trident Z 3600mhz cl18
mobo - MPG edge x570
GPU - 4070s Aorus
PSU - RM 750x

im running Testmem5 now. its a strange one, my oldest son was playing for hours then just black and reboot

temps are all fine from what i can see and thats normally the reason for just black in my experience

I'd turn off XMP and/or downclock the graphics card and see if it runs stable.
Yer I’ll give that a go.

I would probably guess it's the CPU imc not able to run 3600c18. Get pumping with the voltages :)
I really can’t see this been the problem. Back in the day yes. But now we the newer cpus.

I have 2 3600’s one dose 3600mhz and the other max’s at 2800mhz. But surely that should be a history now.
I was hoping for some OC room

I’ll test with out xmp and I’ll test the ram in a different system if that’s the problem I’ll RMA the cpu, I don’t feel running under 3600 is acceptable
 
Yes bios was done before the chip end it.

nothing is Over clocked apart from the xmp.
When I get home I’ll test without xmp. I can’t get the system to black screen. It just at random.
I was thinking psu. But 750w should be fine.
in games the GPU would sit at about 50% usage and the new cpu I now see 100% load and about 70% on the cpu, I thought maybe the new load could be doing the psu
 
If it helps you at all, I couldn’t replicate that PSU ‘power spiking’ issue at all via tests / benchmarking. It was only in game. It’s for such a short period of time that it’s undetectable by monitoring software… which is why it’s such a nightmare to spot.

Also, when it did reboot there was sort of a ‘click’ sound - which is apparently common when a PSU is doing a safety reset but the absence of this noise doesn’t confirm it either way.

If you’ve done extensive benchmarking / tests and nothing is coming up, I think the ‘black screen / reboot’ is likely a PSU / power issue.

What does the windows error log say btw? It should record a fatal error.

i will be gaming tonight for a few hours so im installing squads on this system to play with. see if i can get it to do the same
 
just humour me and play with the 5700x3d's voltages...stick these in:
Vsoc = 1.1V
Vddp = 1.0V
vddg = 1.0V

(they're safe voltages, no harm will come to the cpu)

so soc is at 1.13, vddp i can set but vddg as strage options i can just set a voltage
so VDDG is auto or global. the 2 options you ser under VDDG are what pops up after setting Global and no auto
