Event Viewer keeps telling me Kernel Error : 41 along with some other problems like "XXXXXXX is filled up"

I'm just fucking stumped. I've built dozens of computers before, never had any faulty parts. Never had these kinds of problems. Systems were always intel.

Current build

Ryzen 7 1700 with stock cooler
DDR4 16GB 3000Hz
Gigabyte AB350-Gaming 1
RX470
Corsair 650watts


Motherboard is properly mounted
CPU Fan is properly mounted
All cable connections are solid
Power Strip and outlet work fine, have been using for years
PSU same wattage as older build
Everything in stock
Latest version of BIOS
Latest drivers/chipset drivers installed
Reset CMOS Battery
Ram is compatable on MOBO list
Made sure Hard Drive sleep mode set to never
NO USBs or any external devices attached besides M&KB

Only old part is a RX470 which worked fine on my last machine :^)

It's really weird. It will lock up from between 5-20 minutes, doesn't matter what I do. I ran a stress test for 10 minutes and it didn't lock up, but it will lock up if i search something, go through the settings, or watch videos.

The computer will not lock up while using the BIOS.

The only thing I can think would be the problem is maybe the Windows installation was corrupted. I'm using a launch Win 10 ISO.

I'm trying to think of what else it could be. Maybe AMD cpus are just shit. I wanted to give Ryzen a shot but I'm already regretting my purchase in less than an hour.

It means your ass is filled with jewish cum so you should stick to using intel cpu as per usual.

Okay?

Gigabyte mother board are trash.

T. Gigabyte motherboard owner

Sup Forums is NOT your personal tech support team or personal consumer review site.

in my anecdotal experience of owning exactly one gigabyte mainboard in my life which promptly broke i can second this

Gigabyte and MSI are shit.

Only good board I've used were Asrock (unironically) and Asus, although you can find a lemon literally anywhere. All it takes is one overworked chink at foxconn to fuck up the entire board.

Funny, my old i5-2500k build is using a Gigabyte z68(?)ud3 motherboard and has been running fine since 2011.

probably the gigabyte motherboard
read about some faulty ones so I would avoid that
R7 1700 here with a MSI B350 Tomahawk Arctic
Only issue I had was not being able to OC from the bios, would end up with 1.5GHz on all cores after crossing a certain CPU voltage.
A bios update fixed that for me though and now its working like a charm

gigabytes ryzen boards are actually second best behind ASUS. Granted all the low end ryzen boards are pretty hit and miss - they're under $70 so you get what you'd expect.

>AMD
>Gigabyte motherboard
>guilt by association

Yeah ok whatever.

take it to geek squat or return it, faggot

Thats because they made decent motherboards back then

well error 41 is a generic error for when you power down unexpectedly.
I'd guess that the issue is with faulty/poorly configured ram. If you're running at 3000MHz then I hope you're running the most recent AGESA update.

lol no, the k5 is an absolute joke of a mobo. £170 performs worse than my £80 b350 asus prime

Had similar corruption problems(frequent file corruption and BSOD) with 2 Athlon 64 x2s(90nm) on Gigabyte motherboards(I know they are very old for Windows 10) , no problems with my Ryzen setups though(1x5 and 1x7) with Asus motherboards. My Intel Ivy-E w/Asus mobo setup had no problems either. My previous Intel MSI setup was also fine until the VRM fried and killed the i7 (and subsequently another i3 due to testing) in it a few days before the warranty ended(distributer cannot ship in time).

Hence, based on my experience, I would sau some Gigabyte motherboards might be the issue.

Agree that MSI is bad, my Z77 MPower literally failed its VRMs with a buzzing 'BIG BANG' a few days before the warranty ended, killing 2 CPUs(I was not told the PC failed violently, so I went ahead to put an i3 in). Well, at least the motherboard lived up to its brand name...

works on my machine my dude

Take it into the store and have them help you test it. You bought all the stuff there, so they should throw parts at it until it works.

I'm not going to let fucking geek squad troubleshoot for me.

x370

>install Windows 10
>it breaks your computer

And here I am with Windows 7 and an R7 1700, and it's been running flawlessly.

>Assrock
Please tell me you're joking, I worked in a PC Retailer and 80% of returns we get for MB are Assrock.

how the fuck

I tried installing windows 7 but my mouse and keyboard wouldn't let me get through the installation. it's like they werent even detected.

Run RAM at stock 2133 and see what happens

This don't buy the k5, every day is a struggle to see if the shit will boot at 3000mhz xmp. They should have spent some cash for a reset cmos button. Some times it takes 2 or 3 times to boot, bios interface is shit too.

I must have gotten lucky then, I have used a couple of their boards and they all worked fine. Like I said in the latter part of my post literally any part can be a lemon. A good chance those returns were people wanting to swap it for a board that lights up or has better OC'ing features, not necessarily a legitimately busted board.

ASRock made a patcher that slipstreams the USB drivers into your Windows 7 image and then dumps the whole thing into a bootable USB stick.

Got any evidence to support this? I have 2 PCs that run a Core2Quad with Gigabyte MBs and still work fine to this day. No idea about recent Gigabyte MBs, since I've been using MSI recently.

Oh the beauty of PS/2...

I fukken told you

Read the second part of my post you fuck head, I said any board can be a lemon. Those are just my personal experiences with motherboards.

Try running Windows 10 on them. My Athlon 64s with Gigabyte Motherboards runs XP, Vista and 7 fine. When I install 10 on them the installations are almost guaranteed to corrupt. I have to take 2-3 time to even install them because they simply corrupt halfway during installation. Media is fine since I use it to install on other machines which had zero problems.

>and it's been running flawlessly.
Except that you can't even run updates without hacks anymore.
>b-but i don't need updates
Can't wait for wojak/frog posts once you get your shit encrypted.

Can confirm this, used this method and it worked fine. I gave it up and """upgraded""" to botnet 10 anyway. I don't have the strength to fight microshaft anymore.

Fucking Windows 10 is worse than Linux.

This definetly happened.

does anyone actually use these?

rude

Sorry about that mate, I just don't have the patience for retards with zero reading comprehension.

>DDR4 16GB 3000Hz
Not a supported speed.

still rude

I'm running it at 2933. BIOS will not let it hit 3000.

I will try reinstalling Windows 10. If it hangs, I'll return the ram and exchange it for a different one. Thanks for pointing that out.

Stupid question but did you clean install Windows? Also the launch version is known to have issues.

Gigabyte boards is bound to have issues when overclocking, happened to me in 2 of my builds.
Take 's advice and try loading a lower latency, I'm sure it'll work by then.

I would still say that your motherboard is a suspect.

clean boot. definitely not the latest iso. probably very early.

tested it on my old i5 2500k build, just to fool around with Win10 to get used to it before upgrading, it ran flawlessly.

well, I don't overclock. Ram is 3000, runs at 2933 max. I'll try to lower it first.

The watchdog clock thingy is usually OC instability.
Check the BIOS and try to disable anything that looks like the motherboard forcing some OC/performance tweak on the CPU and/or RAM. Start by resetting CMOS before that, and I guess for starters, reduce the RAM clock to some low level to make sure it is not unstable RAM.

You probably want a clean install of Windows 10 ISO updated for after the Ryzen launch to be honest.

Sounds like user error. I'm have a 1600 and AB350M gaming 3 motherboard and I haven't had a single problem running at 3.9GHz for over two months now.

everything is stock. I'll double check.

I never overclock. Never had a reason to.

get the microsoft media creation tool and download the win 10 pro iso straight from microsoft. load it to your usb drive and install it. there are a lot of updates since the version you're using, just disable the bullshit like most of us do. get dws_lite and spybot anti-beacon and all that good stuff.

Huh, I must have been lucky the past 6 times I bought an assrock mobo

Stop using shitty OS

Seconding tomahawk/mortar series. MSI got its shit together. Just werks.

Only because it was free

MSI is pretty bad, but lumping gigabyte with them is nuts. The longest lasting boards/gpus I've ever owned are gigabytes.

Recent gigabyte board owner here. It works.l, and has a comfy dac/amp. No issues.

>does anyone actually use these?
I've had them. Never bought, or used them though.

>Microcenter will let me return anything even if i cum on it
But will they let you return it if they see you used your cum as a thermal paste?

>using the smiley with a carat nose

make sure you're on the Windows 10 Creator's Update cause it has the drivers from Ryzen

my just newly built Ryzen 7 1700X system was crashing in Windows until it finally updated to creator's Update

Well at least you didn't buy an intel cpu.

ASrock is my most common board vendor next to Gigabyte and I've never had a board fail. I still have 1 working right now that is 12 years old.
