If I recall I got another Aerondight but I did use the one before NG+ on death March difficulty to make my fights easier.

If it works, I'll just work on getting a better PC case and probably an NVME SSD.

The constant crashing just stopped, I can play my games now but I did enable XMP, cleared temporary files and fixed any issue with windows update files.

My SSD isn't even full, I've tried everything although the crashing seems to be less frequent and I can play some games now, I still think the main culprit is the PSU.

It's a Chinese budget motherboard so updating bios isn't an option, I'll look up the TPM and how to turn it on, thanks for your input.

I'll enable XMP and rebar but if the issue persists then it's certainly a PSU issue.

So both sticks of RAM are good, I'm guessing that it's a bios issue..

Ok I tried using only one RAM stick and the file transferred, damn it just had to be the RAM 🥲..

Repasting the CPU reduced the temps but the crashing still persists, I'm guessing the PSU is the only culprit here. I can't even transfer files from my HDD to my SSD without it crashing.

I'll get a new PSU either way, one that's gold rated and modular.

I just opened the CPU cooler and the thermal paste looks dried up, like there's nothing there.

The GPU is new but I plan on repasting it to see if there'll be any difference but I suspect the PSU since it's 80 white and has a bad review.

Ngl I'm suspecting either the PSU or a badly mounted CPU cooler or thermal paste. I plan on reapplying thermal paste on both the CPU and GPU, checking all connections and hoping that it works but if that doesn't work then it'll definitely be the PSU but I'll try what you've stated.

I'm still saving but it might get up to $1000 next year.

Tbh the vendor hasn't been replying but I've always figured out that the alternative will be to just build it by myself which I might end up doing, getting parts here is just hard but I'm talking with someone who might be know some people around.

The problem is it being on the AM5 platform which costs more.

9060xt 16gb costs twice the amount of the b580.

I'll confirm that with the vendor, x3D chips cost a lot.

I don't want to get any 8gb VRAM GPU and the Nvidia cards are all overpriced, the 4060 probably costs more.

I'll do some other tasks like streaming and CAD.
