Games are crashing.

[FeverDream]

Hello everyone just couple of days ago I bought a used computer below specs for around 1000 pounds.

AMD Ryzen 9 7900 Desktop Processor.
ASUS TUF Gaming B650M-E Motherboard.
Asrock phantom Gaming Radeon RX 7900 XT OC Edition 20GB Graphics Card.
Corsair RM1000x Gold ATX 3.2 Psu
Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5 6000MHz.
Lian Li O11 AIR MINI Midi-Tower Case.
Seagate FireCuda 520N 2TB Nvme
Corsair iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX XT WHITE 240mm AIO.
6 X Antec Argb 120mm Fans.

It had Windows 11, and whenever I played games, I would get random forced shutdowns and game crashes. So, I downgraded to Windows 10, and now it’s just game crashes without forced shutdowns of the system. I tried looking at the crash dump files and found the error code c0000005. When I disabled the EXPO profile in the BIOS, I haven't had any crashes since, but I haven't played enough to notice if they occur.

So could it be issues with ram speed, it was running at 6000MHz while now it like 4800


also, the temperatures of the GPU and CPU don't go higher than 70°C, and everything running smooth with no fps drops

You need a 9800 GTX+

No, I need ryzen 4070

You need Plasyattion 2

I'm going to stick to my xbox 720

[_I_]

start with the correct drivers
get them here
https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/tuf-gaming/tuf-gaming-b650m-e/helpdesk_download?model2Name=TUF-GAMING-B650M-E

chipset, lan, audio, usb, vga
and update bios

and disable windows auto reboot on bsod so you can see the bsod

Clean install Win10 22H2 and update it fully until done.

Then download and install all latest drivers. Namely the Chipset and GPU Drivers from AMD.COM

Funny enough that what I did and so far I still had game crashes, maybe if I update BIOS?

Could be a few problems.

Update to latest bios.

Make sure Memory is in DIMM_A2/DIMM_B2 also test with one stick to see if you get any issues.

IMC on CPU might be faulty.

You can run memory at 4800MHz(default) with no issues?, try 5200MHz see if you still get crashes.

Also you might have to tinker with a few settings in the bios to get your ram to run stable at 6000MHz.

I'm going to talk with the person to see if they can get it replaced using the warranty

If you are using EXPO and it crashes, it probably needs a BIOS update.

But you said you bought it used and that is kind of an issue because some people may not have updated their BIOS when there was an issue with EXPO that damaged CPUs.

At any rate if you buy something and it doesn't work out the box, before bothering to troubleshoot it I'd return it every time if it is possible.

Some hardware issues can occur sporadically until they become severe. That usually happens right outside the warranty or guarantee. I typically avoid used products unless they are "refurbished" and backed by a warranty or I know the person.

New CPU architecture will always require BIOS updates for up to 3 years for stability, make sure to read the prerequisites tho as it is not always cut-and-dry.

First of all, you have a new Chipset Driver available (Version 6.10.22.027 released last month), then this board is getting monthly BIOS updates but to stay away from update Version 3067 (Dec 18th) - update to Version 3057 (Nov) or 3042 (Oct), personally I would only update to the Dec BIOS only if both of those previous ones were to fail.

And don't update the GPU because sometimes updated drivers are not the better drivers, especially for AMD RX/Radeon so be careful of that as well.

Hello, I have version 3014 BIOS and to be honest, I never knew about Chipset drivers

Chipset Drivers are very important for system/component stability and compatibility, remember, read those prerequisites for updating BIOS and refrain from this new Dec BIOS until February so bugs can be worked out if present but if the BIOS before that acts up and does not resolve with a reflashing, that is when to update to the Dec BIOS and NEVER update to a BETA BIOS unless the manufacturer specifically says to do so (mostly for newer CPU upgrades this happens).

You have a few great BIOS updates for system stability, hardware compatibility, and security, so look into those but first onward to the AMD Chipset Driver.

Oh, I get it now. So, I basically did another clean installation of Windows 10 and performed updates. I installed the chipset drivers, and it also turned out that I had the Plus version, not the E version. I kept getting confused about why the BIOS file wasn't working from the USB until I realized it was the Plus version, hahah. Thanks for help and now I will test on games

[Agenda 2025]

Try moving the M.2 from the top slot to the bottom slot.

[FeverDream]

So after Bios update everything running fine with 6000 speed, thank you for helping me

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Good it's working!

First thing to do with ANY PC of any kind after it's built is check for BIOS update.
I do that before I even buy a Motherboard; and have that downloaded and extracted to my Win10/11 USB Flash Drive so it's ready to go.
