I just took them out and have them sitting here. I never did check to see which one(s) was bad, but I don't see any of them ever getting used again.

Well, I've done a fair amount of gaming and no crashes or freezes. I'm willing to say this issue is resolved! Thank you very much to all who contributed, especially @zbook and @Dru2. This issue, on numerous occasions, had me ready to throw this PC out the window. In the end, was it the power...

@Dru2 No crashes or freezes yet. Sometimes I get lucky, so I'll keep testing and will report back in a day or two - or sooner if it happens today yet. Thanks for helping thus far. @zbook Thank you for your assistance through this as well. I'm going to just replace all of these sticks since I...

True. Alright, you talked me into playing video games. :LOL:

Just to clarify, it was the 4 pin that has been missing. The 8 pin has been connected. But yes, I did connect the 4 pin prior to running the memtest. Should have new memory this evening. I'll try some games afterwards and see if I can still get a crash.

@zbook Completed all steps. Here are the results: 1) Tuneup output: Tuneup.log 2) Norton uninstalled using the tool. 3) Defender enabled. 4) Nvidia drivers removed using the tool. Installed from Nvidia's website. 5) Upgraded BIOS to 1801. 6) Memtest failed. Results...

LOL. I feel like an idiot. I triple checked all the cables I had and missed this. I have one that splits into 2 4 pins so got it hooked up. Will report if I see any change while I work through the steps posted by @zbook in parallel.

@Dru2 Thanks. I checked the connections and there is no 4-pin. Went through my mobo and PSU boxes and not in there either. Double-checked the manual, it does say you can connect only the 8-pin or both the 8-pin and 4-pin. I'll have to buy a 4-pin cable and hook it up. Worth a shot!

I have not looked at the power supply itself. I have checked all connections and they are good. I bought the power supply a little less than 2 years ago. It's a Corsair CX750F. Unfortunately, I don't have another one to swap it out with to check, but if that is the next step, I can go buy one...

There are no errors in dxdiag: The problem occurs in almost every game I play. They all have been released in the past several years. I haven't kept track of which games I play that have crashed - I should start doing that - but it's been everything from Frostpunk to Starfield.

I've had an issue with my gaming PC for the past couple of years and it has finally gotten to the point where it's annoying enough to try and seek help. I haven't been able to solve this on my own, but I, admittedly, am not very good with these kinds of issues. This PC has a history of...
