Hi, I've been suffering these crashes for around a year now and every time I think I have solved it, it craps out again... It happens totally randomly, sometimes I can play games for hours sometimes it crashes straight into windows, it's a real bummer.
System spec:
Asrock xtreme 3 r2.0
Amd fx8350 (not overclocked)
2x4gb elite group black RAM
Amd rx580 8gb
500gb wester digital cav green HDD x2
1tb western digital cav green HDD
120gb Kingston hyper fury x SSD
Coolermaster cs650m PSU
Creative soundblaster rx5 (not 100% sure, I think that is the model of my sound card anyway)
Windows 7
I have tried a lot already to fix this... Reinstalled windows on multiple hard drives to test if it was the ssd/hdd failing, still got crashes. Updated dx manually with an update package from MS, seemed to help but then randomly crashed again. Tried several different display drivers which didn't help. Changed CPU from phenom ii to fx8350 after trying a friend's CPU in my system and it seemed to work only for it to crash again with new CPU, tick that off the list.. Bought the rx 580 to replace my r9 290x thinking it must be the culprit, seemed fine until a few days ago it crashed again.
Oh I also tried memtest, passed it fine , even left it running for an hour or 2 to be certain. Oddly swapping my ram from slots 1 and 3 to 2 and 4 fixed it for a day...
I'm thinking it has to be the mobo at this point but any and all suggestions are welcomed and I will try them.. Getting desperate at this point, I miss my rig and I have run out of possible ideas. Thanks in advance!
