Lately I have been getting random crashes when idle, which event logs and the minidumps report a WATCHDOG hang This is for a ROG Crosshair Dark hero VIII.
I have found a "solution" of sorts, which is to disable DF Cstate. I have "solution" in quotes because I have issues with EZ Overclock to water cooled settings, which will now hang the system upon boot, no matter what CState I have it set to.
I guess I am suspecting one of two expensive issues-the CPU itself or the Power Supply. Reason I suspect power supply is that on occasion the computer won't turn on until I flip the physical switch off and on first
I'm hoping someone could help me narrow it down between the two
