Hi. I have a 3 fan XFX 5700 xt

I bought this card a month ago. The seller said it is mined. I did all the tests I could and everything looked fine. Fan speed, fan noise, card temperatures are normal, and there is absoulutely no stutter or framedrops on games. I played pes 2021 for 5 hours straight and nothing happened. But, today I was playing The medium and whole system restarted abruptly after an hour and half. twice.

I used the hwinfo64 logging the second time. I am not sure, but to me it seems that the gpu memory increasingly gets full until it restarts. What can I do?

My full system is:

H410

10100f (stock fan)

8gb 2400

480w psu

12cm fanx1

1ssd,1hdd

480wtt PSU is probably culprit ..  I would recommended replacing with a 750wtt 80+ Gold rated PSU from a reputable brand .. check hardware reviews before purchasing anything

Only 8GB system RAM so you are probably hitting your Pagefile a lot so check the health of your drives

Check your CPU temps .. 5700xt probably puts out more heat than your previous GPU..?

You want to run separate power cables from your PSU to each power input on your GPU, don't daisy chain if you can help it

one video on that subject:

Make sure your motherboard's BIOS is up to date

Make sure you have the latest chipset drivers installed from Intel.com

I have upgraded my bios, actually there was 7 updates for my bios and I installed them all. My ssd is in good shape and my cables are not pigtail. I played again and it happened again, so I am ready to buy a new psu, but

I wanted to metion that my card uses this unverified bios:

https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/221783/221783

which may be a mining bios?

should I try to flash the card with some official bios, just in case, or it is not important and upgrade the psu? I have no idea.

here it is comparison by another official bios side by side (Left column is current bios )

They have a slight difference on fan speeds and soc voltage.

I have changed the psu to another one which is 650W gold, and the problem solved. I didn't mess with the bios. Thanks.
