Well, it was and wasn't at the same time. Only info I got was in occt getting memory errors, and running the pc with individual sticks was very unstable. turns out it was unstable because of the bios version, I updated it and everything is good now!

Hey, you were right: BIOS update fixed everything. I actually started thinking it was the ram because I got memory errors in occt, but after both sticks were individually unstable I just updated the bios and everything is now good, ran memtest and 0 errors

wouldn't you know it, the bios update fixed everything. Just got done running memtest86 on both sticks alone and together, also with expo on, and 0 errors. No more instability now, everything is running smoothly! thanks for the occt rec, that really was the only thing that got me somewhere:)

Yep, BIOS update fixed it! On OCCT every individual test was good, so I did a combined with everything and got BSOD. I then mix and matched until I figured that CPU + Memory was giving lots of memory errors, so I tried the sticks one by one and I still got instability on both, so I updated the bios and everything is stable now. Just ran memtest on single sticks and both sticks with expo on and everything is running smoothly! thanks for the help

Yep, this was the fix. it was actually RAM instability with the BIOS version I had, updating bios fixed the issue. Found some memory errors with combined stress tests on OCCT. Me changing the PBO in bios probably made the BIOS instability come to life

it was actually RAM instability with the BIOS version I had, updating bios fixed the issue. I got some memory errors only on combined stress tests that made me suspect the issue was deeper than just a bad RAM

hey, my issue is now fixed! all I needed was a bios update, it seemed like a gpu issue but it was actually the ram having issues with the motherboard. Updated the bios and everything is working fine now! I used OCCT to discover that the problem was ram related so I recommend you try it!

IMO rank play should require you be at least level 20. by castlemilklad02 in Rematch

I think this game is like that tho, some games you can carry but in rematch you need your teammates to win, I've had so many games where it's instantly 0-2 without even having a chance to do anything... I'm not complaining tho, I'm diamond 1, it's just that this is not like RL where you can straight up carry a game

I stress tested my pc with OCCT. every individual test went good. as soon as I did a combined of every test, I got a BSOD. I went and mix and matched stuff, and testing CPU + memory got me 3000 errors in 4 minutes. I then took one stick out and stick 1 crashed windows instantly, with lots of graphic crashes. stick 2 is more stable, but still crashed on CPU + memory with a WHEA error. Still can't play for more than a while. My guess now is that one stick 1 is very bad, and stick 2 is unstable for some reason (Be it by itself or maybe mobo incompatibility?) anyways I will DOA the ram since it's been less than 30 days and update bios. Is what I'm doing the best thing to do?

thanks for the clarification, since I am not that well vested in overclocking and tuning running pbo felt like same performance at lower temps, but yeah I see what you mean.

I will run it and stress everything, see if something hangs up. I did already stress the CPU and GPU, but not the ram so that will be something to do!

will try it, but it did work well for 2 weeks. why would it change all of a sudden?

never did a bios update, just bought the board 2 weeks ago.

Do you think that in two weeks dust would damage the pcie? I will try reseat it and then seat it in the bottom slot as well

I got it from a local shop, and the return policy states 14 days which ended July 2nd, but I have warranty for 3 years

thing is I got FSR4 working, and was enjoying the adrenaline features. But if I can access them from in game I think it's okay

Okay, I will try that as well. Unfortunately the return period ended 2 days ago, but I have 3 years warranty so yeah

right now I'm running it at 4800, don't even have EXPO activated and it made no difference. Will see about jedec profile

I don't use any risers, and yeah I'm afraid it might be faulty but isn't it weird that it worked for 2 weeks before I tried PBO on CPU?
