I am in need of other possible solutions, so here’s hoping.
Bought a pre-built (yeah, yeah I know) about 2 months ago, huge upgrade compared to what I had. Everything worked better than I could’ve ever imagined, really got the feel of enjoying this side of gaming.
Then everything came tumbling down. Little over 2 months of everything running smooth, now became a distant memory.
Major monitor stutters. Not input lag, as I could hear input sounds even with the screen frozen. It varies from 1-2 second stutters of no FPS to sometimes nearly a minute straight. But in those frozen moments, if I hit an in-game button, I hear the sound of that animation occurring sync’d to when I hit it without lag.
Example: Escape From Tarkov. When screen is frozen, I can reload, lay down, etc. I hear it real-time (this is not the only game this happens in)
Additionally, not every time it crashes, but sometimes it will crash, reboot itself and nothing transmits to the monitor. Rig will run, lights and fans running, but no visual. I’ve let this sit for over an hour straight and it never boots up login screen.
Specs:
Ryzen 7900X
Nvidia 4070ti
32GB ram
1TB NVME SSD windows drive
800W psu
Multiple fans and liquid cooling (heat has never been an issue, even while it starts to crash, all hardware is well below problem temps)
The only hardware I added aside from those specs were additional hard drives, but I put those in on day 1 of the new rig and haven’t had issues until now, so I doubt they were the issue. That said, they have been removed to rule those out and no changes
I have done windows factory resets (no saved data) several times with the same outcomes. Updated gpu drivers, defragged, tuned down any game settings to minimum specs to avoid stressing. Nothing. I feel like I could boot Minecraft and it would shut itself down.
I went from having an incredibly pleasing rig to basically a night stand in the matter of a week. What am I missing? Is there a recommended program to find where the fault is coming from? Why do I hate technology now?
