    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    I don't have another GPU to test with. Edited: However, the blue screen issue was resolved with driver and Windows updates. The Nvidia control panel crash is a different problem.

    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    I'm using Windows 11, and I can replicate the bug on a different, clean Windows installation. What I mean is that I suspect it's a bug in the Nvidia control panel.

    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    Today I ran the CPU+RAM test in OCCT, then the CPU test in "normal" mode, and then the CPU test again in "extreme" mode. After that, I also ran the VRAM test and memory test. All passed successfully.

    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    when I open the Nvidia Control Panel after repeatedly enabling/disabling G-Sync there (I was doing this to force a blue screen in a game). It crashes with an error like "0xc000041d" and ":0xc0000005" in the Event Viewer. (Even so, it's not easy to reproduce.) Could this be somewhat normal, and...

    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    I tested the RAM with two default Memtest86 tests (each running four times through each of the 13 or 14 tests), as well as two one-hour memory tests from OCCT and one hour of the TechPowerUp test. All tests came back without errors, so I understand that everything is fine and that these were...

    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    Since it's so infrequent and difficult to track, disabling XMP and observing isn't feasible, so I want to "force" the failure with synthetic tests in case it's a hardware issue. I'll try with memtest, thanks.

    Question Check XMP RAM stability

    I've occasionally experienced crashes with the "radar pre leak" error in the Event Viewer. Since it's so sporadic, it could be a software issue, a problem with a specific game, Windows, etc. However, I've read that it can also be due to RAM instability, and this could be because I have XMP...

    Question Stuttering with Doom The Dark Ages

    I found someone on Reddit who was experiencing the exact same issue in the same location. Does that rule out CPU degradation and confirm that it's solely the game's fault? Thanks

    Question Stuttering with Doom The Dark Ages

    A few months ago, I experienced blue screens whenever I played a specific game (Skyrim, although it also happened with Portal) after disabling and re-enabling gsync. I filed a warranty claim and MSI said everything was fine. Some time later, after updating both Windows 11 and the Nvidia driver...

    Question Stuttering with Doom The Dark Ages

    I've tried disconnecting the keyboard, mouse, and headphones (using a different mouse and keyboard) and the same thing happens. I also tried using a different monitor and cable, and the same thing happens. No one has the exact same lag at that exact moment, so it doesn't seem to be normal...

    Question Stuttering with Doom The Dark Ages

    I've also noticed stuttering in some games, but I don't think it happens in all of them, so I'm not sure if it's a general issue or not. I performed a clean install of the operating system. I tried a new game, and the same thing happens. I've noticed that sometimes the capsule is at the...

    Question Stuttering with Doom The Dark Ages

    I even reinstalled Windows, so it's not due to a poorly installed game or anything like that. The video drivers, BIOS, etc., are all up to date. If it were a bug, there would be more people having the same problem.
