Hello,

When i'm closing a game (especially skull and bones), my pc reboots, i did some digging in the windows event log and i saw that it was this error which was causing the reboot: 0x00000116.

I already tried updating my drivers, formatting my hard drives and updated my bios but i still have this error and i have no idea what to do now.

    In this image, both your CPU and GPU have temperatures within the recommended parameters.

    A CPU with a temperature above 98 ºC may have problems. As for the GPU, it is usually at temperatures around 85 ºC that problems can occur.

    However, before the temperature causes any problems, both the CPU and the GPU have features to automatically lower the clock to avoid problems. Of course, sometimes this doesn't work as it should.

    It's not necessary. But if you want, uninstall using DDU. You can do this after removing the GPU.

    Yes. The CPU alone will not handle some games. However, as the computer had the same problem when running the test using OCCT, the games themselves are not the determining factor for instability.

    Therefore, if during the CPU test, the computer works stable and after that it remains stable, it is certain that the GPU is the cause of the instability.

    For a more reliable result when using OCCT, perform the combined test by choosing all stability tests. Click on "Combined", check the box for all available tests, and click on the "Start" button.
