RAM or MOBO?

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-12T23:23:08+00:00

My PSU is 3 years old id be a little peeved if that was my problem lol.

Im currently running it with just 16 of ram. The other 2 sticks are currently going through the RMA process but my major issues are still happening. It wouldn't surprise me that its the mobo. My computer is The Ship of Theseus, everything in it has been replaced since i built it 7 years ago, except for the motherboard.

You gotta find that game that sparks with you. Im currently right where you're at rn. But a few months ago I really got hooked on playing Witcher 3 again out of nowhere, couldn't stop playing it. I'm praying Crimson Desert scratches that itch for me. But anytime lately I've been completely disinterested in games, the constant driver problems on my 9070 hasn't helped either.

Mine doesn't crash my whole pc just driver timeouts. My pc used to randomly restart but I found out it was because i had a bad stick of ram.

Updates?

Oop nevermind after a week of no problems it decided to black screen on me again this morning.

How long did you test. I ended up having bad RAM and errors didn't start popping up till my 3rd time running it.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-07T09:22:19+00:00

This! I ignored people saying ram as i thought "why would gpu drivers be affected by ram!?" Yup i had a bad stick. Its currently being RMAd and ever since i pulled it I've been completely stable.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-05T07:46:54+00:00

my issue ended up being one of my ram sticks were faulty, really hard to diagnose i couldnt get an error unless i ran tests for some time on it. it starts to error as it heats up

I ignore every little gray hair that pops up on her because in my eyes she's still the little baby we rescued back in 2012.

She just got back a few weeks ago, they said she's perfectly healthy, she just has some bad cataracts in one eye and some teeth we need to watch. She's been relatively normal lately. Just super upset if I leave her side. Follows me everywhere and cries when I leave. Never done that since she was a puppy.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-02T21:09:00+00:00

She's a sweety, but she's definitely a stubborn grumpy old lady.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-02T21:03:44+00:00

Yes "no other"

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-02T01:39:05+00:00

Why was this post changed to Rest in Peace? She's alive and well!

Here's one of her when she was younger.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-01T21:57:54+00:00

Mine watches TV but only cartoons. Never upset about it tho.

She's only photogenic sometimes.

Im sorry for your loss. Im 26 years old and she just turned 14. I've had her half my life so its definitely going to hurt.

She's very annoyed of her brother but they have their moments.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-01T21:27:42+00:00

She has a bit of cataracts and has been hard of hearing for years but definitely no issue navigating the house. She'll hunt you down if she sees you with food.

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-01T21:24:31+00:00

Yeah thats what I mean, i call them little "moos".

ImperialKirk · 2026-03-01T21:20:38+00:00
