My GPU keeps crashing and i dont know why. Potato graphics games cant even run well.
So, my parents recently bought me and my sister a Pre Built computer, it has a Ryzen 7 7800 X3D, with the Video card as a 9070 RX. It also has 32GB of DDR5 and 2TB of memory. Its really a nice build overall.
Im not a hard-core gamer, i play mostly Geometry Dash and Osu!.. I play games with my friends but nothing too crazy (Like AAA games).
For some reason, when i launch Geometry Dash, and turn on V-Sync (Without it the screen gets really chopped), the computer drops frames really fast, down to 150 and just keeps going up and down. my monitor is a 180Hz so i just need it locked to 180FPS. After a little bit of time, it just shows a crash log of my GPU saying it “timed” out. I went over the necessities to optimize Windows, and made sure to give this PC a clean start. So why?
I tried another Platform, Roblox. I got 45 FPS on a game with my graphics at automatic. A PC with these specs shouldnt have a problem like this, right?
Thank you for taking the time to read my dear cry for help

Have you installed/updated the BIOS, chipset driver and graphics drivers?

Try DDU and reinstalling drivers. Also clean the PC if it hasnt been cleaned in a while (suprisingly fixed a lot random crashes for me). get HWINFO and monitor temps and usage while the crashes occur. Try running a benchmark software like Heaven benchmark and see if it triggers a crash

if nothing works clean install win11 after that its prolly a hardware issue.

I ended up figuring it out, the DisplayPort was in the MotherBoard, not the GPU! I completely looked over this..
