    Ram Stick Usage

    Hi there,
    My PC keeps restarting when running heavy intensive games but runs less intensive games really fine. I run two 16gb ram stick and wanted know if a game that only requires 8 GB, will it spread the load across both ram sticks or will it run off one. I believe I could have a faulty ram stick causing my pc to crash when I run a more heavily intensive game.

      Hey Veeg
      Hi, i was gaming for a couple hours the other day on my PC, i was in a game just about to finished, however my pc suddenly restarted and whenever i try to launch the game now it black screens and restarts my pc.

      I have tried switching GPU’s all brand new and still nothing, other games run fine but now all games which are intensive seem to crash my pc. Do you have any idea what could be causing this.

      I can run games like DC Universe, League of legends but now all the demanding games like PUBG, ARK and Fortnight all crash my pc on launch restarting it.

      Im not quite sure what could have component could have been damaged that day as the pc was pretty hot and now doesn’t run most of the intensive games, however less intensive games which require a lot less ram, run very well with good graphics.

      Does anyone have any suggestions as im not quite sure what component could have been damaged by over heating whether RAM, PSU or Motherboard.

      3tb of storage/ all game are on the same disk so i not a faulty drive as the less intensive ones work

              Not sure how you arrived at that conclusion as Veeg asked you a question that you have not answered and likewise you haven’t even bothered to reply at all to my offer of help on another forum

                I came to your website for some advice on my situation otherwise I wouldn’t have posted. It’s nice to see you reply quick but no suggestions or help where offered. So your conclusions and assumptions have been nothing but confusing.
                I will be removing myself from this account as it’s been completely and utterly useless regarding the problem in which I seeked help for.
                Thanks

                    Abandoned thread, closed.

                    For others that may happen upon this thread, as was suspected the OP never even bothered to reply to their thread that I had already replied to on another forum.
