Hey guys, so I recently purchased a new 8700k, Msi z370 gaming carbon pro ac, and new Corsair vengeance ram.
I have all of those parts, plus a 1080 from evga. So after reassembling my build, I opened up coretemp to monitor temperatures. I have the cpu on water with a h100i v2, and had no issues. I ran cinebench r15 a few times to get a average on temps (60-68c) on my cores. Everything seemed fine so I booted up GTAV to check out the frame rate from the new cpu. After about 5 minutes of gameplay, my game completely froze. The audio was skipping, and I had no control over the pc. So I was forced to power it down manually with just holding down the power button. Now when I go to boot the pc, I get an “ez debug” led flash every few seconds, not rapidly on my mobo. I don’t believe it’s a temp issue due to my benchmarking, I’m really confused on what it is. Any help would be appreciated
