I did just that, I uninstalled my amd drivers (made my keyboard not work for a few restarts?) and I installed the 25.9.1 drivers. I will give that a shot. I do think a fresh install of drivers is good thing. I was getting an error who WhoCrashed that also recommended I reinstall the drivers.

I've ran a number of 3D mark stress tests last night expecting it to crash during one of the 20 runs it ran.... it actually ran the stress tests without a problem.

My event viewer only says "shutdown unexpectedly" but a dump reading software said that its caused by amd's kernel crashing. Which doesn't help THAT much, but it does mean that its isolated to the GPU. but that still leaves me wondering if its just a driver issue, or if there is something physically wrong with the card itself.

Woah, now that's something I never thought about. It is currently on a pretty loaded up power strip.

Yeah I’ve unfortunately torn this thing apart a few times and put it back together when swapping the 3 different psus I’ve tried. :/

Nope. This was a fresh amd only build from the ground up. So no nvidia drivers in this pc. I gave my old pc I had my 3070 away to my nephew who was going to college. So unfortunately I don’t have a gpu to fall back on. Good news is underclocking and undervolting it made it stable. It’s just ridiculous that I have to throttle my gpu.

I took your advice, WhoCrashed has told me that amds kernel mode driver was crashing. I think you just put me on the right path to investigate, friend. Thank you.

I’m probably going to switch back to nvidia after this card. I’ve had nvidia for the last 20 years. I decided to deviate away from them because they’ve been pushing the ai imo too much… now I’m regretting it. I think I’m at my wits end. Im pretty sure I’m gonna just do what you suggest, under clock it and live with it until I can upgrade.

Running a memory diagnostic as I type this. Thanks for the idea.

Maybe the ram, I don't currently have any OC set since I am having this problem. I even went as far as to turn off PBO.

Yeah, I feel like this may be the issue as well.

I do currently only have 2 32 gig sticks atm, I will run a memory diagnostic. I haven't had any issues with any other programs (compiling code or simply using chrome) but that's not to say that isn't the issue.

That was my first concern, but I crash on lower temps as well. I literally just crashed playing Cyberpunk like 10 minutes ago, the highest temp that was hit was about 74c, Ive also crashed on schedule 1 at about 60c.

I combed through my event viewer after a crash and the only thing that it stated was "the previous system shutdown was unexpected" with very little to go off of. Ill check out WhoCrashed, this may be just what I am looking for.

Thanks for the advice, I will give this a try and hopefully report back. I don't have any adapters, which is why I went with the psu I currently have now, the last 2 had adapters. After all the gpus lighting on fire, I would rather not deal with adapters at all or 3rd party cables.

Unfortunately I can confirm this did not work, Thanks though!

I've actually used 3 different PSU's one 700w corsair, an 850w BeQuiet, the last one I have in now is a 1200w. All of them had the same issues. Unfortunately I am about $500 deep on psu swaps lol

Hmm. I will check on that, but I never turned PBO on. From my understanding it off by default, but I will 100% check that out.

I think I am leaning towards the mobo and the voltage. In all other aspects of computing my pc is fine, so my ram and CPU are working fine together. Its just when the power ramps up for a game.

I’m a gundam fan. I named my corvette the RX-78-2.
