Download HWinfo64 and run it with logging enabled. Then once you crash and restart, post the csv file, and we can look to see if you have a power issue. It sounds like you are having a power supply issue, or your video card or motherboard is, by the buzzing sound that you hear before it reboots.
Hey. FINALLY got a hold of a crash while logging with HWInfo. Here's the CSV file. Anything you can see from this? Thanks in advance.
Sound more and more like a powersupply issue to me, if the PC shuts off without staying at bluescreen (if its set up like I linked)
Please check my latest comment with the .csv file if you can provide any input from that, I would appreciate it a lot...

Well, I went through the crash file and did not see anything that jumped out to me other than your HWinfo64 log has no power supply input for the 5V or 12V rails, which is odd to me.

So, at this point, I would pull the ram and try in another PC. Then the video card, then the CPU. It's a pain in the Ars, but well worth it to find the issue since it's a hard one to diagnose.

Hello everyone. Built a friend his brand new pc:

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600, no overclock
MOBO: AsRock B550M-HDV (updated it to latest bios)
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 2x16GB @3200 MT/s (XMP enabled, both sticks were in one kit)
GPU: Asus DUAL RX 7600XT OC
PSU: Corsair CX750 (Grey label, the good version)
SSD: Kingston NV3 2TB NVMe SSD PCIe 4.0


So we installed a few games, he wanted to play COD 2 for some reason because he was nostalgic and played the game at around 330 fps.
After a while, there was a buzzing noise seemingly from the speakers, and the PC rebooted. The monitor showed nothing so he restarted the pc again and then it worked normally.

Today I tried to play CoD WW 2. Cranked up all settings, had like 260 fps and after about 10 minutes - buzz, reboot, no display. Held the power button to turn the pc off and then turned it on, then it started to display again.

The bios version was 3.30. I updated it to the latest 3.46 version to try and fix it with that. I also put GPU power limit to +20% in hopes of getting it fixed.
750W should be plenty.

More info:
All connections inside the pc are fine. Checked everything multiple times. Everything is seated properly. Windows and drivers are up to date.

In windows event viewer theres only an "unexpected reboot or shut down". Kernel-Power, Event ID: 41, Task Category: 63, level: critical

DxDiag had an error saying "RADAR_PRE_LEAK_64"

Any ideas what to do if it happens again? Thx in advance.

Call of Duty is not a stability test. Slow down and put the time in to do it correctly (OCCT CPU+RAM large/medium extreme and GPU 3D adaptive, y-cruncher Component Stability Test). Start at hardware defaults and work up from there until you find the best compromise between temperatures and performance.

I have done every single occt test for multiple hours. The pc shuts down only during gaming. I tested with each ram stick, same problem. Ill just take it to a repair shop and have them figure out what component is causing this.

It reminds me a problem I had with my old PSU, a Be Quiet Dark Power Pro P9. Quite old (ancient, even), but solid as a rock. Never had a problem with it... until we started to play Zombie Army 4. With that game, and only with that game, I got BSODs and random reboots. Not always, not frequent, but sometimes. And only while playing it.

Did some check ups to the system, stress test, torturing every and each component... and nothing.
So started swapping the first component I suspected, the PSU, for a reliable one: a RM850x. And the problem went away. No more BSODs nor reboots.

So my advice is: try to borrow one PSU from a friend or shop, and test it.

You know bringing it to shop, and if it the PSU, the repair will be like double the price, with labour and testing, than when you just buy a PSU and test yourself.

Cost me only 10 euros. The guy told me he swapped out every component and that when he swapped the GPU he had no crashes for 2 hours straight in game. With my.gpu it crashed within 10 minutes.

Good that you know now which part is defect.

Just put the gpu's bios mode from P to Q, and the game doesn't crash for the last hour. Is it possible that its a bad vbios? Should I still RMA it and wait 3+ weeks?
I would RMA it and get it fixed before it dies completely and takes something out with it like the motherboard or CPU.
