So I have never used Furmark, but I selected my resolution 1440p, and fullscreen, then selected GPU stress test, and let it run for about 15 minutes, did not have issues, and GPU max temp was 70. Is there something else I need to do to test it?
Someone on a Reddit thread I have opened in Tarkov responded to me and said:
New PC since February.
This was happening with me, and my fix was that the chipset driver download listed for my mobo (asus z-390 a) had two required downloads: the actual chipset driver and a intel management engine update. Both were listed under the chipset driver category.
I also updated BIOS, and double checked all the other mobo drivers.
Not sure if this helps, but hopefully another scenario can shed light.
Whenever I went to the update page you listed for my mobo, I downloaded only this chipset update:
Version 2047.100.0.1039 2021/04/01 285.25 MBytes Intel Consumer ME driver V2047.100.0.1039 For Windows 10 64-bit.
Is there something else for the chipset that I should have downloaded too?
They also said this:
I'm most definitely not a professional, so take this with a grain of salt. But I had the same issue.
In my device manager, I had an error identifying the SM bus controller and PCI device. I was told by professional computer repair experts that this was an indicator that I need to update chipset drivers. The latest driver was the "Intel ME driver". The one before that, however, was listed as a "chipset driver". When I install the Intel ME driver, nothing changed. When I installed the chipset driver, I no longer had an error identifying those devices. Along with that, I haven't had any BSOD's since.
One thing worth noting, is that updating chipset drivers can be risky, so definitely do research there.
I don't mean to confuse the solution Miguel, I am just looking for anything, because none of the tests really seem to be failing. So don't think I am trying to second guess you or anything, I just posted on that Reddit since it seems to mostly happen in Tarkov.
