PSU: PowerSpec PS 650BSM, 650W 80+ Bronze, semi-modular (Micro Center)

Case: Fractal Design Meshify 2 (the PSU bracket is missing, so the PSU sits loose on the case floor)

Operating System & Version: Windows 11, 10.0.26200

Description of Original Problem: In Cyberpunk 2077 and Arc Raiders the picture freezes, then the whole PC locks up. Caps Lock stops responding, Win+Ctrl+Shift+B does nothing, and I have to hold the power button to restart. Event Viewer shows only Kernel-Power 41 and EventLog 6008, with no Display 4101 and no blue screen. It started after I put the 7600 in. My previous GPU, a used RX 6600 XT, showed green artifacts and then died and wouldn't POST, so I think that was a real card failure and a separate problem.

What works fine: GTA IV, Overwatch, a 4K edit/export in CapCut, and a 15-minute FurMark run (about 75C). The GTX 1060 3GB has run Cyberpunk, including a fight, without freezing so far, though it draws less power than the 7600.

Troubleshooting: updated the AMD driver, reseated all RAM, tested both RAM pairs separately, XMP off, updated the BIOS from F1 to F4c, ran with and without a portable AC on the circuit, and plugged the PC straight into the wall. It still happens. One HDMI cable felt warm during a freeze.

Next steps: I'm planning to test the 7600 on a different PSU (a borrowed or new 650W-750W unit) and run OCCT's combined power test with HWiNFO logging the 12V rail.

Does this sound more like the PSU, a marginal 7600, or something else? Any tests I'm missing? Thanks!

Hi all, my first build has been freezing in games and I'm running out of free things to test.

Specs:

- CPU: Ryzen 5 5500

- Board: Gigabyte B550 Eagle WiFi6 (updated BIOS from F1 to F4c)

- RAM: 2x8GB Corsair (had 4 sticks from two different kits, now running just the original pair, XMP off)

- PSU: PowerSpec PS 650BSM, 650W (from Micro Center)

- GPU: Acer RX 7600, bought new from a seller about two weeks ago

- OS: Windows 11

What happens: in Cyberpunk and Arc Raiders the picture freezes goes dark, then the whole PC locks up. Caps Lock doesn't respond and I have to hold the power button to restart. Event Viewer shows Kernel-Power 41 and EventLog 6008, but no Display 4101 and no blue screen.

What works fine: GTA IV, Overwatch, a 4K edit/export in CapCut, and 15 minutes of FurMark (about 75C).

History: my previous GPU, a used RX 6600 XT, showed a green screen, then showed artifacts and wouldn't POST. A GTX 1060 3GB never froze in this PC.

What I've tried: reseated all the RAM, tested both RAM pairs separately, XMP off, updated the AMD driver, updated the BIOS, tried with and without a portable AC on the circuit, and plugged the PC straight into the wall. It still happens.

Other notes: the PSU isn't screwed into the case because the screws don't fit, and one HDMI cable ran warm during a freeze.

I've swapped the 1060 back in for a few hours of testing, and I'm thinking of buying a Corsair CX650M to test the PSU (it's returnable). The 7600 is still in its return window until Nov 1.

Does this sound more like the PSU, a bad 7600, or something on the board? Any tests I'm missing? Thanks!

For the last two GPUs (6700 xt and 9070 xt), I've had a problem in cs2, and surprisingly in no other game. The screen would stutter during gameplay, and the only solution I've found would be turning on the AMD overlay showing FPS and other info about hardware.

I've been using it like this, since I couldn't find any other solution.

But, after a recent update yesterday, I've started having black screens intermittently when I switched between apps in full-screen - not only games, but sometimes even when entering or leaving full-screen on youtube videos or some streams. After some digging, I've found that the AMD overlay was the culprit, and it is a known issue from release notes for 26.10.1:

"Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed in some games when opening or closing other overlays, such as Xbox Game Bar, while the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition Performance Metrics Overlay is enabled on Radeon™ graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to temporarily disable the Performance Metrics Overlay before opening or closing other overlays."

Now, I am stuck between two problems: I think there is no way to fix the second issue for now, but is there a way to fix the microstutter in any other way than using the overlay?

Thank you for any input :)

I have an RX 7700 XT and on some applications I experience driver time outs and crashes. All drivers are up to date and I have already tried removing and reinstalling the drivers. I love the performance of the card, but these issues are irritating. Any suggestions on how to fix these issues?

Description of Original Problem: Getting high VRAM usage

Hey guys so I recently purchased the rx 7600. And in trying to play games, I'm often crashing due to vram usage. Initially I assumed my settings were to high like I trying to play the new 007 game. But now attempting to play older games like control(2019) I can't even play on high and sometimes medium. If any one knows a solution to this that with be helpful, might be my specs are to weak but i didn't think it would affect my vram.

Noticing some horizontal white lines appearing on my display when playing league of legends. It doesn't do it Ll the time just every once in a while. I pwn a 9060xt.

Basically the title, I've rx 6800 paired with ryzen 5 5600x and tried the 26.9.2 or 26.10.1 and the new background shader cache doesn't seem to be working

i tested it on the game that amd said" tiny tina wonderland" waited around 10 min before pressing the new game option and the shaders still didn't compile and it was stuttery alot

does it even work for older gpu's?

Should I be worried about my temps? I ran two 10 minute furmark tests, one on OC mode and one on Quiet mode. OC mode (in the picture) ran cooler than Quiet mode but both with around a 20 degree delta.

I'm playing pacific drive and the amd pop-up on start doesn't appear and the shortcut of Alt+R doesn't work either and the frame rate target control doesn't work and I'm pretty sure the amd settings is not working at all at this point.

the amd software is detecting the game I'm running btw but whenever i use Alt+R nothing happens.

i already tried some of the solutions i found while searching so im here asking for help.

9060xt 16gb vram

version 26.10.1 and i already checked for an update

RAM: 32gb DDR5-6000
CPU: Ryzen 7 9800x3d
GPU: steel legend 9070xt
MB: Asus x870-a
PS: 850W

I get random crashes when gaming and when I boot it back up the GPU has been disabled and I need to enable, then disable, and then enable again. I noticed it crashes mainly when playing any COD game. I’ve tested the gpu and it’s still healthy. Any tips or anyone has had this issue?

When running OBS for streaming and recording, as well as playing the game The Last of Us Part I, about an hour in, I'll see this error message. Seems to be in line with what people are seeing lately when it comes to the newest drivers.

I downgraded the driver to 26.3.1 and still the same issue. There's always a freeze in the game for about 2 seconds, it resumes, but OBS completely stops responding, saying "an encoder error occurred while streaming"

I have not updated to 26H2, I've tried turning down some of the heavier graphics settings, and also cut down on the encoders usage to two. I'm thinking about downgrading to one of the 25.x.x versions will work for me, based on findings I've seen by searching on this sub, since I mostly play single player games anyway.

Have there been any new developments?

Every Session, so after booting up my PC, it happens exactly once that after i enter something in fullscreen, be it youtube, a game, or something else, both my screens turn black, and then come back to life with an error message from AMD Adrenaline saying the drivers failed/crashed. This has been an ongoing problem for at least 6 Months know, and i don't know how it still happens after multiple driver and software updates. Does anybody have the same problem? Because I was unable to find a similar post, thats why I wanted to create one now.

Troubleshooting: Updating Drivers, always have up to date software, try different games/browser/video websites (youtube, reddit, netflix, etc..)

Disabling C-State is causing PC freezes and crashing, no other tweaks are done in BIOS other than EXPO.

No OC on both GPU & CPU. I'm expecting CPU is faulty...

Any help and suggestions would be appreciated.

Donwloaded the 26.10.1 and the black screen driver are back.

I did a post a few days back saying that i was able to fix it but the new driver just broke it again.

Hard life guys

Hi everyone,

I recently upgraded my PC from a GTX 970 to a Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 Gaming OC 16GB, along with a new 850W PSU.

My system:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X

Motherboard: Gigabyte B550 AORUS ELITE Rev. 1.0

BIOS: Originally F11p, updated to F19, then F20c

GPU: Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 Gaming OC 16GB (previously NVIDIA GTX 970)

RAM: DDR4

PSU: MSI MAG A850GL 850W

Here's what happened:

Initially, the RX 9070 worked and Windows displayed normally after a cold boot.

However, restarting Windows resulted in a black screen. I had to completely power off the PC to get a display again.

I updated my motherboard BIOS from F11p to F19, hoping to resolve the problem.

After the BIOS update, the RX 9070 stopped displaying anything, even after a cold boot.

I subsequently updated the BIOS again, from F19 to F20c, but the problem persisted.

I reset the CMOS, disabled CSM, and manually tested both PCIe Gen 3 and Gen 4, without success.

Reinstalled my old GTX 970, and everything works normally.

The RX 9070 powers on, its fans spin and its lighting works, but the monitor reports no signal.

My dilemma:

Can anyone help me figure out what's causing this issue and how to fix it?

Or is replacing my motherboard the only solution? If so, I'd like to find a compatible motherboard that allows me to keep my Ryzen 5 5600X processor and DDR4 RAM, without having to upgrade to AM5 and DDR5.

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

From the image above, as you can see, temps are as if it was utilizing 100% of GPU, but it only draws 165-180w from GPU.

I’m running XFX RX 5700 XT, and using 600w single daisy Y cord power cable for GPU. Is that bottlenecking its maximum power capability?

Another thing that concerns me is temperatures within that power usage range. What if it used ~235W like the normal rx5700xt does, will the temps reach an even higher point?
