RX5600 Suffering

Greetings!

I'm writing this after dealing with ongoing issues for the past 1–2 years involving this theme in various forms.

In short, my PC crashes fairly often and it’s been difficult to figure out why. The behavior is inconsistent: sometimes it completely freezes, sometimes it goes to a black screen, and occasionally I get a “Driver Crashed” message before it recovers. Other times, it doesn't recover at all and I have to force a reboot. In the past, I’ve also seen the occasional blue screen, and while I don’t remember the exact error, I believe it ended with something like ...HEAP_CORRUPTION.

The weird part is that it doesn’t seem tied to workload. Whether the GPU is under heavy load or not, the crashes still happen. I haven’t been able to find a consistent trigger or root cause.

Has anyone experienced something similar or have any ideas on what I could try to resolve this?

Here are my system specs (happy to provide more info if needed):

  • CPU: Intel i7-10700F @ 2.9 GHz

  • Memory: 32 GB RAM

  • Operating System: Windows 11 Pro 64-bit (Build 22631)

  • GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5600

  • GPU Driver Version: Radeon Software 25.3.1

Thanks in advance for any help! 🙂

Faulty RAM stick, try with only one memory stick at a time and see which one system fails to boot.

It doesnt seem to be faulty and the problem occured before i had the ram replaced too, as i had 2x8 before

Are you sure that this has got to be the case?

Try updating drivers, checking hardware, and running diagnostics.

Troubleshoot like there is no tomorrow.

 

Have you tried DDU under safe mode?

Have you tried minimal instalo, gpu drivers only?

Underclock power limit the card?

Try another power cable from the PSU?

 

As for the ram

Use just One stick of ram at a time.

Dont enable XMP

Check slot placement

 

CPU

Disable any settings regarding power savings of the CPU

Disable Intel boost

 

General

Re-Do all cabling

Clear CMOS and reset BIOS to factory defaults

 

Try other parts if have access to them.

BTW whats your PSU?

 

Good luck
