My PC seems to be locking up after installation of my Asus Strix RX 570 OC 4GB GPU. It seems like a driver issue maybe, but hopefully not a bad GPU.
What I experience is, in this case, I will hear an audible "sharp but quick crashing" sound through speakers, monitors will say there is no connection and go to sleep mode, PC, fans, and RGB will stay on, yet the Asus Strix GPU's little ROG RGB will turn white and the keyboard and mouse will not be responsive.. aka can't wake up the screens. The power button wont even work to hold and reset. I have to turn it off at the PSU's I/O switch, wait 5 seconds to drain power, then turn back on.
This will happen within minutes of waking the PC, with little to no load on the CPU/GPU/RAM. Just a sharp crash sound, montiors black, and PC on but frozen up.
Event Viewer has this error each time, "Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered"
Then this also will happen, I'm playing Final Fantasy 15 and the screen will "crash" to a windowed grey screen. I hear the music of the game still. I have to open Task Manager then Force it to close the game. Not sure if this is related.
I did the TDR to 8 thing it crashed, I uninstalled Asus Aura, it crashed. I uninstalled CAM, it crashed. I unclocked the CPU (from a mild 3.5Ghz), it crashed. I rolled back the latest Radeon driver, it crashed and said I need to update that driver. I ran the Windows built in driver tester thing, it crashed due to Corsair's Utility (for my mouse), I uninstalled that, PC crashed.
I reinstalled windows last night. Haven't tested it yet.
Also, the GPU worked fine for about a week after I got it, now this.
