    PCSPECIALIST Random reboots, troubleshooting advice?

    True but unlikely the below are going to save the day, but won't rule it out. I've updated the chipset drivers now as they were very out of date and removed AI suite, i'll get the windows update done and see how it goes.

    PCSPECIALIST Random reboots, troubleshooting advice?

    pretty sure i installed the chipset drivers manually but will take a look. Noticed a service that seemed to be occurring around the crash which was iomap64.sys which seems to be related to ASUS AI suite so i've uninstalled that.

    PCSPECIALIST New machine finally on it's way!

    Can't get an FPS counter through GOG, and steam overlay not working. It's smooth though, i turned off RTX in favour of Ultra graphics, i preferred the better looks in textures etc vs the difference RTX to visually and impact on FPS. although haven't tested RTX since the last patch or 2. luckily...

    PCSPECIALIST New machine finally on it's way!

    Not had an issue with it, temps don’t go above 70 while playing cyberpunk, hard to tell exactly where the noise is coming from I think the case fans make more noise. But I often play with headphones. I’m playing 1440p so easily copes with what I’m playing

    PCSPECIALIST PC hanging but not during gaming???

    @Nursemorph & @ubuysa that's the thing, I've worked in Software for 15 years, Norton will struggle to shake off their old rep and rightly so; their software historically was criminally resource hungry, but their new products are much better and slowly being recognised. P.s. I don't work for...

    Thanks all, definitely will try it without 3rd party AV, and will be doing a clean install. Not sure i would drop Norton tbh, and Norton results for 360 are very good.
