GPU: MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 GAMING X TRIO Video Card RAM: Team T-Force DARK Za 16GB (2x 8GB) DDR4 3200MHz Memory 'The simplest explination is often the correct one' - so make sure your card is installed correctly, your MoBo/CPU can handle the upgraded card and your PSU is ~100W more than the reccomended PSU (30 series cards can spike).

I don't think I did mine right to begin with and now that it's actually installed properly it works a treat. Make sure your card is 90 degrees to the MOBO.

Install the card arm!! (if you have a 3-fan GPU/if it came with one) The reason they include this thing is to keep your card at the right height as the thing weighs so much. Make sure you have good airflow so tie your cables up neatly and ditch any old HDDs or in my case Disc Drives you don't need to free things up. If you're running a case/setup that you've used for years pull everything out, clean the case, fans and filters thoroughly and put it all back. Adding a second intake fan close to the CPU may have solved my issue. exhaust: 30 series cards run hot and my old 1-in 1-out approach was causing stuff to overheat. I ran Cyberpunk overnight (just to test my theory) and everyhing was working fine in the morning. I still get the 4 beeps - something which I've seen atributed to the fact the MOBO has PCIE 3 VGA slot and the VGA/3070 is a PCIE4 card, but my games are now running as they should with no crashes! Movement of the card/misalignement from the GPU -> MoBo is most likely what was causing my issues. Make sure your GPU is 90 degrees to your MoBo and all attached securely. This may sound stupid (which it kinda is) but coming from a smaller 970 and going up to a 3070 with 3 fans/weighing a ton - it's not something I really understood. When I had put everything back together out of the case, I was able to run Cyberpunk for 2hr+ without the game crashing - a clear victory.Īfter thoroughly cleaning the case and removing 'dead wood' componants I had in there from when I first built it 5 years ago (BluRay drive mainly) and installed an additional intake fan in the roof (2 intakes now, 1 exhaust).įinally, I installed the GPU with the card arm properly. Starting with the PSU, then MOBO, CPU, RAM - gradually adding every componant until the PC was working. Then, I tried the following:īreadboarded my pc - I took all the componants out and began testing every. I tried all this stuff and still no solution. Installed my old 970 - everything worked fine - installled 3070: less fine Stuff I tried already (ordered as the author remembers them): I tried a LOT of solutions to this problem and I think I found mine. I also started getting 4 beeps when I boot my PC up. I had the same issue: after installing a 3070 my games were cutting out after 5min - 2hr of play time.
