Hi guys
I built a new setup for my partner, specs as follows
Asrock AB350m pro4 latest bios
MSI GTX 970 gaming (factory OC)
Ryzen 1500x (stock)
2x4GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2400 CMK8GX4M2A2400C14
2x 1TB WD green drives (storage) and a 120GB Hynix SL308 canvass (OS drive) (the two games mentioned below are installed to this drive also)
PSU 450W Seasonic G Series 80 plus gold Hybrid modular
Windows 10 x64 Updated
Main issue is when playing games (Team Fortress 2/ L4D2 mostly) the game will lock up, mainly when loading into a server, or just after loading into the server. But not always, she can play for hours sometimes without issue. We get a variety of errors in event viewer, the latest being -
The description for Event ID 13 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
\Device\Video3
Graphics Exception: ESR 0x404490=0x80000001
the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table
Now as for what i've tried: Fresh clean install of windows. Reinstall GPU drivers using display driver uninstaller beforehand. move ram from A2 B2 to A1 B1. I switched my Evga GTX 980 SC 2.0 into her machine and the freezes persist, using the GTX 970 in my machine i have no problems, so i can rule out the card itself being defective. It's passed through Furmark 1080p test ok multiple times.
I've ran memtest for 3 passes with no errors. Used both the XMP profile and mobo default ram speeds. I'm using AMD's balanced power plan but with the pci-e setting off. I've tried debug mode in Nvidia control panel and prefer maximum performance. Temps are fine according to all monitoring software.
I was thinking the 450W PSU could be an issue but i believe it is a good PSU and the components shouldn't draw near the full capacity?
Is there anything i could try to pinpoint the cause of these freezes?
Appreciated, Rob.
