PC (recently built) AMD Ryzen 7 7700x Gigabyte RTX 4070 super 32gb Corsair vengeance 6000mhz DDR5 RAM WD Black 2tb SSD ASUS Tuff b650wifi mobo NZXT Kraken 240 AIO
So I think I've FINALLY figured out what has been crashing my games on my newly built PC. Essentially I was using DOCP to raise my RAM speed to 6000mhz, I didn't realize that my Ryzen 7 7700x is only rated to be stable up to 5200. I went back in and lowered it and it's been running great since then.
After a few stable runs I'm HD2 I decided to OC my GPU via the Nvidia GeForce experience method. I only got an additional 116mhz but it's good enough for now until I decide to tinker and try it via MSI afterburner.
I then decided to OC my CPU using the "auto OC" in Ryzen Master. It rebooted my PC... Then it got stuck at a DRAM led. I waited but ultimately has to hard reset it. It them started but did a weird thing where it completely shut down but the power light was still on. I said, what the hell, let's try once more... Boom fired up no issues. It has since then been running great. The OC bumped it from 5.4 to 5.65. The first time I loaded Helldivers 2 I noticed a bit of stuttering but it's been smooth at butter since then. I have restarted the PC completely since then with 0 complications.
I guess I'm just looking for some insight as to why it had such a hard time rebooting from the OC initially. Before I figured the RAM situation this was even worse, I had to reset my CMOS whenever I tried to OC. This has been a very weird build with a lot of little hiccups along the way. I wish I understood them better. I want to get them most I can put of my build.
Thanks for reading!
