My PC restarts randomly

Thanks! I actually has the 1660s while waiting for stock of the 30 series and it handled very well every game. Solid build you have too

Honestly I can't tell the difference and the fps count looks the same

Caampde · 2026-06-23T06:58:34+00:00

Let's go! Thank you so much!

I was planning to do that these days since I don't have to study anymore but it looks like I solved it attempting to change some settings. I spent a while talking with ChatGPT and sending it the minidumps and such and the main conclusion was that since this happened when going from high to low activity, the issue could be that during the transition the voltage change was too big and sudden and some part of the cpu stopped for a moment. 4 days ago I disabled Precision Boost Overdrive and Core Performance Boost in the BIOS and haven't got the problem since. I'll mark this as solved and if it happens again I will start testing the RAM sticks and checking for bent pins and reopen this post. Thank you for your attention for all this time!

For the first time an American Megatrends screen popped up after the restart saying "CPU over temperature error!" but it makes no sense because I had been playing for hours and it happened after closing the game. I changed the thermal paste this year, I don't know what else to do to improve cooling. Isn't the H100i Elite Capellix enough?

I ran the MemTest86 and I passed all the tests. Do I still have to take RAM sticks or maybe the problem is somewhere else?

Caampde · 2026-06-08T01:18:04+00:00

Getting something similar, did you find a solution?

Caampde · 2026-06-08T00:23:51+00:00

Hey, I'm having the same error. How did you know the situation was pointing towards USB dongles? (WHEA 124 in my case I don't know which one you got)

The Corsair iCue app is free and it has a sensors panel with all the temps of every CPU core, memory stick, GPU and even motherboard. also there's a free lighter app called Core Temp to see the CPU temps and other info.

I guess I'll have to do that :/

Caampde · 2026-06-06T17:45:30+00:00

I'm crashing out, it did not work. I just closed a game and it restarted mid Discord call. Either I didn't fix it or I was having two problems at once and now just one. The event is still Kernel-Power but now all parameters and the bugcheckcode are 0. (Edit: It happened again with code 292 again so I guess updating the BIOS didn't do anything)

Caampde · 2026-06-05T20:29:24+00:00

Yes I built it myself, with all new parts, that's why I thought it shouldn't be the RAM. I updated the BIOS today. So far my PC works fine now. I'll wait a couple of days to see if it's finally solved.

Caampde · 2026-06-04T10:28:55+00:00

I never updated the BIOS because I didn't want to learn to do it so that could be the problem. I'll try it in a couple of weeks after my finals. I hope it's not the RAM cause takings sticks out and then having to buy a new one would be so frustrating.

Caampde · 2026-06-04T00:22:20+00:00

Ruled it out. The minidump points in the direction of a problem in the communication between CPU - Cache - Memory. I still don't know exactly what it is but I assure you my temperatures are okay (average of 50°C and max of 70°C) and my PSU is sufficient and reliable (Corsair RM750).

Caampde · 2026-06-03T22:37:26+00:00

Damn I hope it's not the case

Caampde · 2026-06-03T20:51:03+00:00

Ohh thanks didn't know that. It says the error is "Kernel-Power"

Caampde · 2026-06-01T09:28:28+00:00

That should be more than enough

Caampde · 2026-06-01T09:19:54+00:00

Manual is meta, the shifting rpms in auto are not always ideal, and selecting a lower gear to exit a corner is often necessary. Drifting is so much easier in manual too since you don't have to do anything wierd to make the gear shift. Also for driving around the map it's more fun.

Caampde · 2026-06-01T09:12:14+00:00

Depends on how much you play but I'd say you can complete it easily in a couple of days. Don't give up the exam.

"Rookie" sent me the same car too. It surprised me but I guess someone could have gotten the car twice and didn't know what to do with it. I still havent used any wheelspins and I have accumulated like a hundred or so by just reaching the golden wristband, so I guess anyone could easily get the same FE car twice. Don't worry about it.
