Hello! New EndeavourOS user here…
I’m having a hard lockup issue that I had coming from Ubuntu 22.04.
The lockup occurs during extended gaming, but more frequently when trying to compile something. I’ve tried to narrow it down, and I think its hardware related. First thing I did was check the BIOS settings, and the second thing I did was run Memtest86+. I identified some RAM that was bad, and removed it, and ran Memtest86+ overnight (6 passes) which resulted in 0 errors. Problem kept happening, and I adjusted a couple more BIOS and motherboard settings, which have not helped.
I’ve booted into a LiveUSB and installed Phoronix Test Suite, and ran a CPU test which results in the lockup occuring after about a couple minutes of 100% CPU. Using btop++ I’ve seen CPU temp as high as 97C, which to me is pretty high, but I’m not sure if that’s the cause, as when I’m gaming, the temp never gets much over 80C, unless there is a spike that does not show up.
I have tried LTS Kernel with no change in behavior.
Magic sysrq is on, works, but not during freeze.
If left alone system will reboot itself.
Not to sure where to go from here. Please let me know if there is anything else required.
Thanks!
