got a bluescreen when launching pc

[cosmic sparrow]

Also every once and a while maybe once or twice every couple weeks when i boot my pc up it takes longer than normal and there is a light on my motherboard for the extended period when it feels stuck, its the DRAM light and then i think the cpu light on too, and then after it seems unstuck and my devices plugged in turn on the boot and vga light turn on for a second right before it launches and then its good

[robust compass]

the mobo's just making sure everything's on place and working

what PSU is it?\

[cosmic sparrow]

oh is that normal?

[robust compass]

yes

[cosmic sparrow]

uh can i check that on my pc or do i need to look at the back?

[robust compass]

look at the back

also, what windows do u use?

[cosmic sparrow]

theres nothing rlly on the pack of my psu, the only text i can see on it is 100-240V` and 60/50Hz and then like text that looks like VGA or smth

im pretty sure its an 850 watt psu though

and im using windows 11

[robust compass]

nevermind then, should be on the lateral part of it, but if it's not visible unless u remove it, it's fine, just making sure uve got something good for powering those specs

[robust compass]

did u change anything related to TPM in bios settings before?

[cosmic sparrow]

i've also always felt like my pc might of been slightly slower than some other 4090 builds ive seen because in some benchmarking vids my avg is a little lower than theirs

[cosmic sparrow]

Whats tpm?

only thing i tried doing was maybe like 5 months ago when i tried turning on XMP or whatever its called for me for my RAM

[robust compass]

what did u use for benchmark?

[cosmic sparrow]

but then found out that i cant go above 3600 mhz of ram for my CPU

[robust compass]

oh nvm uve looked how games run

[cosmic sparrow]

just like comparing to streamers who have the same sepcs as mine playing games or youtube channels that show fps with the same specs as mine

it still definitely runs very well just a little less performant

[robust compass]

why not? ddr5 runs much faster

than 3600mhz

[cosmic sparrow]

im not sure, this is what is says under my cpu specs when i look it up

PCI Express® Version
PCIe® 5.0
System Memory Type
DDR5
Memory Channels
2
Max Memory Speed
2x1R
DDR5-5200

2x2R
DDR5-5200

4x1R
DDR5-3600

4x2R
DDR5-3600

i have 4 32gig ram sticks to get 128 gigs

so that means i can only have each one on 3600 right?

Im pretty sure they are DDR5

[robust compass]

they are

[cosmic sparrow]

here's a screenshot of this program that was on my pc when i first installed it showing some specs

[robust compass]

3600 is the default

without running xmp

[cosmic sparrow]

for some reason it says 4800 for ram in here but in task manager it shows 3600

[cosmic sparrow]

oh alr

[robust compass]

thats the advertised speed i guess

[cosmic sparrow]

does that mean i can turn on XMP even though my cpu says it can only do 4 3600?

[robust compass]

u could give it a try and see if its stable

[cosmic sparrow]

Yeah i tried it before but then turned it off when i saw that it said 3600

it seemed fine while i had it on though

Do you have an idea what could of caused the bluescreen?

[robust compass]

looks like a common bsod on windows 11, make sure ur windows is updated and that theres nothing corrupted, (u can run "sfc /scannow" in cmd to check that)
