GTR7 Restart during game

I used the newly bought GTR7 for both working and gaming.

For working purpose, it was so far so good.
However, when I used it for gaming and video editing, it tends to get restart out of a sudden. This is even obvious when playing game where it can happen as early as first 10 minutes of playing. Video editing is much better, so far it only happened once. I am not sure if this is becuase of overheating?

Is this game always send you to reboot?
Check RAM temperature, critical is 95C, but >80 is bad

I have dota crashes cause access violation (directx, no crashes at vulkan), increase UMA size to 4-8 gb helps to stop dota crashes. I hope AMD fixes this with new official drivers.

If restarts are consistent try removing one of the RAM modules and see what happens, thnks

Hello there,

Yes, we are waiting for the new driver from AMD too.

Hi.

Just played a few rounds. Notice the ram temperature raised even more during playback (Asphalt 9). The machine didn't restart, anyway. Maybe I didn't really play hard.

Wait until you see what I do for cooling, I have not used my GTR7 yet but I come prepared for toasty hot summers.

I have many external usb fans that are all intended for pc use not standard laptop cooling pads special ones.

I have a laser cut bottom and dust filter sheets ready and feet too this is going to be a fun weekend.

tinker before play is my fun time.

Can't wait to see your mods!

But I just wonder 91Deg C is okay for RAM? I search around from the internet, seem the 'normal' temperature for RAM should be around 70C plus. Or I worry too much? (91C is still not the max that I could go, I just stop doing the game playback to avoid it go even further).

with the modifcation that I've peformed if my system got to say 95c it should result in 80<c the base plate I got made arrived yesturday and the screws I needed should arrive tomorrow.
