PowerColor fighter 6700xt freezing pc when under load
Please help me. My new 6700xt card is freezing my computer anytime it is put under load. I have tried to play Call of Duty Warzone and it froze. It even freezes when using MSI's Kombustor software.
The setup is:
ASRock B760m Steel legend mATX Motherboard
i5 12600k
Powercolor fighter 6700xt
Deepcool AG400
Corsair RM Series (2021) 850w, RM850

Any information in event viewer/windows logs/ application error? System freezes in my experience usually hinge upon some sort of memory error or power inadequacy. I hope you have two separate pci-e power cables connected to the GPU and not a single cable daisy chained. Motherboard bios updated to the latest stable? History of GPUs on this windows install? I'm thinking from context this was a GPU upgrade from what previous GPU? Multiple monitors connected? Tested system memory for errors?

Hello, thank you for responding, this is my first pc build so I am still unfamiliar with some of the things you asked about.
By memory error do you mean ram or vram?
- To answer your questions: I have two sepearte pci-e cables connected to the GPU.
- I updated the motherboard bios to the latest stable version.
- This is a new build with a fresh installation of windows so no other GPU's have been used before the 6700xt.
- There was only one monitor connected via HDMI
- How do I test the system memory for errors?
I tried a couple fixes from reddit and youtube but nothing worked. As soon as I run KOMBUSTOR the GPU fans come on but the pc freezes.
After this I took out the 6700xt and removed the amd drivers. I then put in an rtx 3060 (a borrowed GPU) and installed the drivers for it. The 3060 worked well without issue.
I am not sure why the 6700xt doesn't work.
Could overclocking my ram via XMP help?
