So many game I play crash.

[fatlinesofchang]

I'm at a loss if I'm being honest with you peeps.

Got a new PC a few months ago after gaming on a laptop for over a year. I had very limited issues when using my laptop aside from me getting games that were obviously needing better hardware. After saving up for a better part of a year I got a custom built PC from PC specialists, getting what I feel like is more than decent hardware.

Intel i7 12700K
32GB RAM
RTX 4090
2TB SSD
(Running Windows 11 unfortunately & using a 2K monitor if that means anything)

Since getting my new PC a fair few of my games have issues with crashing, issues that I didn't have whilst playing these games on my laptop.

Overwatch 2
ESO
Ready or Not
Mount & Blade: Bannerlord
Guild Wars 2
Halo Infinite
Squad
Battlefield 2042

And others have all been giving me issues since getting the PC. I've made sure to check my drivers for all my hardware and as far as I can tell everything is up to date. Alongside that I've checked using software: my RAM, CPU, GPU and SSD/Storage devices are running properly and it seems all OK on that end. I use MSI but purely for the monitoring of ♥♥♥♥, not overclocking. Motherboard is fine, unsure if that is important idk I'm tired.

One thing I've seen online and in crash reports is that one cause might be a too weak of a power supply, but when looking online a 1000W seems to be alright for what I'm running sooo?

Sorry if I'm being dumb but I'm just sick of all the crashes I'm experiencing.

At the end of the day my warranty is valid for another year or two so can just go that route.

Any error in Event Viewer ?

Bad overclock?

Games crash or pc reboots?

Single player games like witcher 3 crash?

Bad xmp ram profile?

it will open a browser, copy the url (address) and paste it here

psu, brand/model/age?

disable windows auto reboot on bsod, to verify thats what its doing
many monitors are not fast enough to change res and show it

[_I_]

bad ram is extremely rare
unstable oc or drivers are much more common

get the drivers from mobo mfg or oem site, never windows update

ESO is a trash game known to crash...that said...

Aside from what others said about overclocking, ...

TRY

1. Try disabling "hardware acceleration" and related options in CHROME or CHROME-BASED apps like Discord, STEAM, Google Chrome, and other browsers. Chrome uses code that is buggy in Windows 10 & Windows 11 when running more than one graphical application or screen. And no, it will never be fixed in the driver of Nvida or AMD, it's something for Microsoft to fix and they never have after 4 years and likely never will.

Still not working? TRY

2. If on a multi-monitor setup try limiting frames on both monitors -- some games crash if you have screens at different refresh rates and resolutions. Alternatively you can manually set the pixel clock or see if your card has the patched vBIOS.

Make sure...

Windows is installed in UEFI and not legacy mode. Nvidia drivers do not function properly (or I should say "fully") in legacy mode, and on that note Windows 11 shouldn't be installed in "legacy mode" at all, even though it's possible.

#

If that doesn't work, provide video of the crashing so people can see what you mean, also describe how often it is...

#

Also considering that you are playing online games when it happens, provide information on the network adapter you are using to play those games and what method, IF by "crash" you mean Windows crashes and your PC reboots.

Hah hah , even Skyrim is so obsolete . It wasted my time indeed . Even the mod couldnt help the graphics as a whole .

edit
to the moderator who blocked me
Bro , sorry but it s the truth what i wrote . I am not ruining anything just saying the truth ! Skyrim is obsolete . It belongs to the past . Steam can make money out of other games instead of maintaing the hype of an old game . This just wastes the hard earned money of the people . Shame on you ! Keep in mind , everyone has an opinion and the right to express it . Second , i ve achieved in life so much that you ll never achieve in 100 lives .

Will go through all these suggestions shortly! Thank you everyone! Will get back to y’all!

What's your PSU? Have you updated the BIOS to the latest in your mobo?

I'm running a
i7 12700k
MSI z690 motherboard (current bios)
32GB DDR5
Geforce 3080ti
2x 2TB Nvme's
850 watt PSU
Running windows 11 thankfully so my E/P cores are managed properly.

I can't say I've had any real issues.

Spider-man
God of War
Days Gone
Horizon Zero Dawn
Vampire Survivors
Divinity Original Sin
Cyberpunk 2077

I’m running a 1000W PSU. I’ll check my BIOs shortly!

I don't overclock my PC, I just use MSI for the FPS counter and monitoring. It's a game crash, I can use PC normally after so it's just the games. And I'll have a look at the ram xmp.

My PSU is a Corsair 1000W Rmx Series. Unsure how old it is but I assume it's newish.

Imo, the 2 most common culprits, as far as hardware goes, are cheap power supplies and bad memory. I'd check those first.

I think both are okay from the looks of it but ♥♥♥♥ knows.

Sorry bud missed your post, I’ll have a look shortly and get back to you!

some intel cpus are really picky about the fsb(bclk) being over 100
yours shows 100, in bios try setting it to 99.5 (one bump down from 100)
