PC Graphics

Hi there. I have this error now, happening very often, for the last 6 months or more only when the Windows has booted, after I insert my windows pin. There is no system crash in games or any apps, nothing is present in Event Viewer. System is rock stable. Why is this happening? 

SYSTEM SPECS:

GPU: Sapphire RX 7900XT, separate pci e cables for both ports.

PSU: Corsair 750RMx

CPU: Intel 14700k (with no stability issue, tested)

RAM: 64GB on MB's QVL.

There is no overclock, no instability, latest drivers from AMD, 'Minimal Install'. I have used their cleaner, DDU, nothing fixes this error. Not even turning off Windows Wuick Boot.

At random boots, I get this error, yet nothing is crashing...

If it's not happening in any games or apps I assume it is doing it on "start-up".  Check your overall power usage for the PSU.  Are your connectors all plugged in solidly.  If it is occurring only at start-up it acts as if something is drawing power away from the GPU or CPU for a brief second.  If you could provide a list of all components with the wattage required for each it would be a quick check to determine if the Corsair 750 is adequate.  I'm guessing that your CPU is under 100W and this GPU is recommending a minimum of 700W PSU.  

I would look very closely at a PSU of over 1000W and see if it solves the problem.  

I'm running Corsair 850W but not a 7900 XT.

When gaming it pulls around 550 to 650 from wall. Every cable is plugged in, I see no damage also the psu is a very solid one. I'll try to change the ports for the pcie cables on the psu to see if something changes.

I can confirm that after upgrading my PSU to a 1200w Corsair unit, the issue dissapeared. Bizzare but I'm happy that it works. Apparently having the minimum spec for the PSU is not the greatest idea.

I seemed to have this exact same issue when using AMD Fidelity and other Anti-Lag features.

I've turned all the settings off.

I never used those features. My problem was related to the PSU, interestingly, only when booting.
