Solved Gaming PC crashes In all Games.

Hi.

My sons gaming pc has recently been upgraded. we have the following hardware

Nvidia Geoforce GTX 1660 Super GPU
AMD Ryen 5 2600
Samsung 2tb ssd
Gigabyte A320M S2H Motherboard.
16GB Corsair vengance ddr4 ram (2x 8gb sticks)
2x Benq HD monitors.

We installed the new ssd, graphics card and ram recently and ever since games keep crashing either midway in a game or when its loading up. His favourite games are Rust and Modern Warfare and GTA 5.

All games played great until the upgrade.

Im not very experienced with PC,s. But what ive done to try and rectify the problem is:

Clean Windows install.
Removed all old drivers with DDU.
Stopped windows installing driver in tweaker.
Installed drivers from Nvidia and AMD.
Mem tested the ram.
Did a Benchmark test and it did really well.
Im not sure what else to try.

After all this we have just tried loading modern warfare and it crashed whilst loading giving "DEV ERROR 5624"

Rust just stops and close to desktop.

Dont usually have aBSOD.

Anyone have any ideas what I could try. Is something in the pc causing this??

Thanks for reading.

Sorry. Missed out the power supply. Its a brand new Corsair VS650 650 W Active PFC 80 PLUS Certified Power Supply Unit - Black

This is the new ram stick. Its identical to the 2nd ram stick that was already in the pc.

The PSU is also a new addition as the gpu card had a 8 pin pcie connector that the old power supply unit didnt have. What supply unit would you reccomend??

Have gotten rid of the old psu but still have the previous gpu.

Can you tell us the previous GPU details, we need to see if the PSU is capable of powering it.

You are going to have to do some swapping and changing to troubleshoot this I`m afraid, I will try and provide all of the steps tonight as I may not be around until later on tomorrow or possibly not at all.

The previous gpu was nvidia 1080 something. Thats all i know sorry. It didnt need an extra power cable though.

Forgot to mention the power supply is also a new addition as the old supply didnt have an 8pin pcie connector that the new graphicd card needed.

Yes sorry my mistake it was a 1050.
Sorry about quoting!! Pressed the wrong reply!!

I didnt mention. These parts were all a xmas present. All added gradually. I added the extra ram on xmas day and everything was fine.

Week later i installed the ssd and this is when our issues began. We bought the new graphics card because of these new issues with the games crashing thinking the gtaphics card was failing.
And then obviously had to upgrade the psu as the old one didnt have an 8pin connector for the graphics card.. its been a long few weeks!!!

Right quick update. Tried running the pc using one ram stick at a time. 1st one in the pc, crashes same as usual, back to windows.

Out original 8gb ram stick in and 3 hrs in and alls running fine....

Seems like the identical new stick is causing the issue.

What is a better ram stick to get instead of the vengeance?? As obviously only running 1 8gb stick now. Whats best rsm to use with AMD RYZON 5 2600??

Cheers everyone whos helped!!

Yes tried the new ram in both slots. It crashed every type of configuration.

Have now purchased a new pair of 8gb ram sticks to replace the vengeance ones.

Gskill trident Z. Hopefully this will be the resoloution to all our problems!!

Just to update. The new gskill ram arrived and has been installed. The pc has run loke a train ever since. No issues whatsoever. No crashing and all games running like a dream.

Looks like all the issues werw caused by the corsair vengance ram we had installed.

Thanks for everyones help sorting this issue.
