I upgraded from a i7 9700K to a 5900X system and since doing so I am finding the 5900X system to be quite unstable.
I am using the same core components as before, all I have changed is the motherboard and CPU, the rest is the same as before, and reboots previously were pretty rare.
Full spec is:
My usage at the moment is light gaming and basic productivity work. BIOS version has been updated to the latest one I can find (2004) for this motherboard.
I can't play more than about 5-10 minutes of Europa Univeralis 4 without the machine rebooting itself, nothing in event viewer is logged when it does except for a message saying it couldn't create a dump file.
"Dump file creation failed due to error during dump creation". Event source: volmgr. Event ID 161. Source: system log.
I have the most recent VGA and BIOS versions but neither really seem to be helping.
Any ideas on what I should test next are welcome! I am reluctant to do a full Windows reinstall but I think it might be a necessary eventuality.
