[Slowz]

Hi,

Im newbie in pc gaming world so dont mind if im not saying as should be and sorry about my English language.

So i bought completly new PC. At start i was using 1920x1080 monitor, but in games like GTA V, WITCHER 3 GPU didnt run full load 99,100% as it should be. So i decide to overclock my cpu.

My biggest mistake - i didnt read anything about overclock i just get into BIOS and raised clocks to 4.8 Ghz and voltage to 1.6 V (pc just crashed and it changed to factory settings)

Then i launched BIOS and set cpu @ 4.2 Ghz and voltage 1.380 V (This was lowest voltage could i set otherwise pc crashed used aida 64 for test) (in total pc crashed, restarted about 10-15 times)

After overclock games stuttering, freezing, fps drops (sometimes screen just stuck for mili seconds but GPU usage dont drops, when freeze is bigger also usage drops, few times noticed that on desktop mouse cursor also stuck's)

Temp's are fine GPU dont hit more than 76C, cpu OC 65C, cpu default 50C, motherboard 35C, SSD's 25-32C. Also reset BIOS to default, cleared CMOS, installed latest version of BIOS. Installed newest NVIDIA driver (used DDU to uninstall old driver's)

Reinstalled win 10, contaced with MSI, NVIDIA, ASUS. Tried to find info forums/videos even took PC back to store for diagnostic's (dont know what they did with PC, but all i know is they sent videocard back to manufacturer and 

they reported that videocard are ok) So i have no clue.. Im thinking that some part is damaged. Any help will be very appreciate. THANKS <3

    Slowz,

 

It is entirely possible that the bad OC has done irreparable damage to one or more of your components.

 

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here,  this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

[Slowz]

Here is the information - http://speccy.pirifo...8EvK80Lnxhy1hhf
I run Intel diagnostic tool for CPU - all passed. Memtest for about 6 hours and windows memory diagnostic tool no any error detected. Also i have 2 sticks of ram each 8gbs tried run them by one but nothing worked out. 

Maybe its the motherbaord...

[phillpower2]

Apologies for the delay getting back to you Slowz, I have a heavy workload which needs to take a precedent at the moment 

 

Had a look at Speccy and can see a couple of things that are either off or not correct but unfortunately certain info that we need is not reported by Speccy for whatever reason, nothing shown in Speccy 100% identifies the problems that you have only shows that your present set up is not correct;

 

You post your RAM specs as RAM: Corsair 2 x 8gb (16gb) @ 3466 mhz can you post a link to this RAM for us please, Speccy is reporting your RAM as running at only 1599MHz and having checked the MBs memory support tab and the Intel support tab it would appear that your present RAM is not compatible with your CPU;

 

Memory that your CPU can handle is DDR4 2400 and 2133, specs here

 

The memory support information for your MB here does not show any Corsair 2 x 8gb (16gb) @ 3466 mhz as having been tested and approved by MSI.

 

 

Power Profile

Active power scheme: High performance

Hibernation: Enabled

 

 

Your present power settings may be causing instability as "High Performance" is a form of uncontrolled overclocking, change it to balanced.

 

Hibernation is a pain in the proverbial and brings nothing to the table imo, disable it for better performance;

 

Open the Win+X menu, and click/tap on Command Prompt (Admin)

In the elevated command prompt, powercfg -h off press Enter and you are done.

 

You have the following program installed;

 

Driver Booster

 

The above program is complete junk and may explain why you have had mouse problems, there are six different keyboard and four different mouse drivers installed, uninstall them all.

 

We also need to check your voltages but for now deal with the above then get back to us.

 

 

[Slowz]

Thanks for reply im thankful for your help

 

This issue now is lowered (time to time is still may notice some screen lag, freeze for mili seconds, but no more huge FPS drops like it was before) 
Things i did:
-Installed samsung magican and under OS optimaztion menu i set Maximum Performance (also its improve SSD performance)
-Before my ram stick's was one sided, now i put one left other right side (no idea what it do, but it helped)
 

Did a little research about  MB and RAM - my current ram module's are not supported for X99A GAMING CARBON PRO.. Also SSD's are not supported too for this MB but i think its not big deal.
 

Current ram module's - CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 

 

 

AFTER Reading your post.

Disabled: Hibernation 
 

RAM LINK - http://www.corsair.c...16gx4m2b3200c16

 

-Unistalled keybaord, mice drivers! but they showed back after a while. (now i have installed Corsair for Keybaord and Logitech for mouse softwares so i think they controll them all now)

-Uninstalled Driver Booster

-Also found some weird stuff, not sure its the game or some of hardware issue - https://postimg.org/image/dxicfo669/

Voltages for CPU and memory are offset (auto) if im right. I dont do any with overclock anymore. XMP for ram is off also.

Thanks again.

Thanks iammykyl 

 

After the clean install of Windows 10 did you reinstall the chipset drivers for the MB.

 

Cant see the SSDs being a problem but the RAM quite possibly.

 

AFTER Reading your post.

Disabled: Hibernation 

 

 

Did you change the power plan to Balanced as suggested.

 

Before my ram stick's was one sided, now i put one left other right side (no idea what it do, but it helped)

 

 

Your two sticks of RAM should be in slots one and three, number one being the nearest slot to the ports at the back of the case, slot two empty and the second stick in the third slot.

 

XMP should be enabled.

 

If the problems return after setting up the hardware as it should be then your RAM is most likely the cause as in not being compatible with the CPU when overclocked by XMP.

 

Regarding your screenshot, that would need checking once you have a stable system to see if there is still a problem with the graphics.

 

You are welcome btw

After the clean install of Windows 10 did you reinstall the chipset drivers for the MB.

-What u mean by reinstall the chipset drivers for the MB? 

-After winidows 10 install, downloaded those drivers: https://www.msi.com/...wn-driver64

-Also changed power plan to Balanced.

-Enabled XMP. And yes voltage for cpu is auto, 0-4 core's working @ 3.8 GHz and 4-6 core's working @ 4.0 GHZ (default bios clocks)

-Changed ram slot's. Where i placed them: https://postimg.org/image/vxsqwrfv3/

[phillpower2]

Once Windows has been installed and anti virus protection set up the chipset drivers for your MB should have been installed, they are the ones at the bottom of your boards download link;

 

Type System & Chipset Drivers Title Intel Chipset Driver

 

 

Installing the chipset drivers first helps to make sure that any other drivers install without issue.

 

Have you read your manual but not understood it clearly Slowz, from page 31 your user manual;

 

Always insert a memory module in the DIMM1 slot first.

 

 

From my reply #7;

 

Your two sticks of RAM should be in slots one and three, number one being the nearest slot to the ports at the back of the case, slot two empty and the second stick in the third slot.

 

 

We could do with the screenshots requested by iammykyl.

 

 

 

 

 

[Slowz]

Sorry for misunderstanding. Now i placed them as you said.. DIMM1 and DIMM3. Also installed chipset driver's. Will test how game's run with those settings.

 

I have quick question:
-Im using case  Corsair 780 T Black and there is button for 3 level fan profile.. When i start pc its always on level 3 (highest) but i want use level 1. Of course its not big deal, but i would like to know how to do it..

Thanks.

 

[phillpower2]

The following is from the user manual for the Corsair 780T

1. Connect the SATA power

connector to the PSU SATA

power cable.

2. Connect the 3 or 4-Pin fan

connector to the case fan

header.

3. Push the fan speed selector

button on your case to

toggle fan speed.

 

 

 

Your MB has 3x 4-pin system fan connectors which is what your case fans should be connected to.

 

You are welcome btw 

[iammykyl]

 

We could do with the screenshots requested by iammykyl. reply #6

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now that you have your RAM in the Correct slots and installed the chipset driver, please generate a new speccy scan and include in your next reply.

 

Reason.

Like to see if this error, present on every channel, has disappeared. > Intel Xeon E7 v4/Xeon E5 v4/Xeon E3 v4/Xeon D/Core i7 Memory Controller 0 - Channel 0 Error - 6FB2

 

 

[Slowz]

Here is speccy - http://speccy.pirifo...Es2uh5xxKumY28c
 

[phillpower2]

How is the computer behaving now, if the same then we really cannot do anymore without first seeing HWMonitor and Speedfan screenshots, will come back to this after you have done the following and post an update for us.

 

The DriverBooster junk and multiple keyboard and mouse drivers are still reported by Speccy, uninstall the lot, restart the computer but do not install any drivers for the keyboard and mouse, use the generic drivers that Windows installs and test.

Sorry missed that message.

For some reason MB BIOS didn't fully reset voltage's, especially for CPU.. In BIOS is three options 1.Manual 2.Auto 3.Offset After reseting bios it sets back to 2.Auto (but when i checked CPU voltages it was on 1.34 Volts @ 3.8 Ghz) I just set every settings what i could to OFFSET. Also turned ram XMP on/off.. still laggs.

Freezes are not so usual as before after i changed to Offset.. But still time to time they came up and freeze's the game.. 
ADDED requested info and  picture how looks when game freezed! (its not my screenshot, just looks similar to my problem)
