I reset the driver to use the automatic profile instead of my super underclocked profile and haven't had any crashes.

I've also replaced the thermal grease on the GPU die and HBM2 with a Thermal Grizzly Carbonaut pad (might replace this with Kryonaut paste though it's hard to get positioned quite right). 3mm pads to replace the large yellow pad attached directly to the heatsink and a 2mm pad to replace the small grey pad on the metal shim. I've replaced the thermal pads with Thermal Grizzly Minus 8 pads (as per lots of posts online). I want to have as much info here for others who might be in the same boat, though. However, I've had the card over two years so I'm not sure if I'll be able to RMA anything at this point but I'd give it a shot if necessary. If nothing here works I'll probably contact ASUS next to see what they suggest. They have been trying to help me, though. I've also attached a screenshot of the performance tab in the driver when the GPU fan spins up.Īs an update (and reply I know someone who works at the AMD driver testing place and have been receiving input from him and have just been updating this post to have a record of what's going on. If there's any other information that might be helpful I'd gladly help out.

Below are any BIOS version info I could find for both motherboards. This used to happen on my ASUS Crosshair VI Hero & Ryzen 7 1800X system and still occurs on my new ASUS Crosshair VIII Hero & Ryzen 9 3950X system. The fans on the GPU will also spin a few hundred RPM faster than normal occasionally which seems to coincide with a crash unless I underclock the GPU. I've had my ASUS ROG Strix Vega 64 since January 2018 and just recently (August/September 2019 maybe?) begun having issues with both of my monitors blacking out, audio seems to still be playing, but hitting caps/num locks on the keyboard eventually stop toggling the identifier light and I hard reboot the system.
