Interestingly enough, HWInfo’s sensor mode isn’t reporting the A770. I’ve wondered if having both of those cards is also a source of issues with Windows switching between both cards at will. The 4090 is specified as GPU0, so I’m assuming it’s treating it as the main card, but Windows can be odd like that.
This coooer is inferior to the 4u m fwiw

Not anymore. No more whea is present. The system is running fine then just crashes and displays 0d.
Maybe use hwinfo64 sensors only mode andnuse the record to csv function. Then post thenlogs here after it crashes

I hit character limit…is there any specific part youd like to see ?

No crashes here, yet, though I did notice something odd in HWInfo I’ve not seen before.
Look at those maximum temps! I know this is clearly a bug, but it gave me a good laugh.
lol that is pretty funny. You haven’t crashed yet ? About how often do you crash ? How hard do you have to push your system before you do crash?
Sun surface temp says hi!

No crashes so far, but I did shut it down for the evening. If I’m not having anything running I tend to keep things off.
The crashing is intermittent, sometimes it won’t crash at all throughout the day. There’s no real rhyme or reason to it, and it seems to happen independent of load. When I was on W11, just having a YouTube playlist go to the next song was enough to cause a crash.
I should also mention I stuffed all this into a Fractal Torrent (solid case, but it doesn’t support EEB nearly as well as fractal claims). I’ll have to share some build photos in the future. The chassis fan controller is currently hooked up to CPU_FAN_OPT header which allows the case fans to ramp up and down as needed with the CPU fans.

Well, crash finally occurred with BSOD in tow. Stop code was “VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE” along with a what failed: igdkmdnd64.sys.k
It really seems to be my system instability issues are GPU related, and I noticed when I would attempt to switch Discord servers or check DMs there’d be a hiccup.
ETA: This does appear to be an Intel Arc/Xe/Iris issue. I may need to disconnect the Arc GPU 
Open the event viewer and go to the system tab…see if your getting whea spam…you might be.
Nope, no WHEA spam. Since I’ve disconnected the A770, even alt-tabbing from fullscreen apps has been much, much faster. No hiccups.
Exactly. The ARC and AMD dont play nice together. Honestly…until further notice…just keep it out of the system.
I have had to make a few of those sacrafices my self with certain hardware…namely my sonnet thunderoblt enclosure.
I’m a little saddened, but this is an eventuality I was somewhat mentally prepared for. Everything is running normally. I’m alt-tabbing out of CnC Remastered as we speak to answer this and the transition from app to desktop and back is a night and day difference!

Your issue could be pcie bar related
Can’t be a stable functional system. Who cares about the encoder if your computer becomes a snail when its in there. What you did was worth it…in time things will get more optomized.
@wendell Makes a very good point…did you set resize bar and w.e other setting is right by resize bar. You should turn them on.
I have not been able to find 4g decoding explicitly on this board but i think turning those on automatically means above 4g decoding woudl be on .
