I’m trying to play Horizon Zero Dawn on OpenSUSE TW but every 10 minutes or so my entire system crashes leaving me with both monitors displaying a green screen and forcing me to pull the plug on my PC. This appears to be the only game with the issue. I’ve tried multiple versions of Proton including GE but all suffer from the same crashes. How do I go about diagnosing the issue?
PC specs are if relevant are:
i7-4790K
AMD 5700XT
32GB RAM
2TB nvme SSD
sounds like maybe your power supply might be dying or your system is pulling more than that psu can handle. mine recently blew a capacitor with a loud bang and magic electronics smoke after a few months of odd problems with shutting down in the middle of an intensive game. i think the fan died about a year ago bc my temps had been higher than they used to and after it popped the side of the case by the psu was very warm. i came to find that my gpu upgrade pushed my power draw to 450w when my psu was only rated for 530w and not 750w like i thought i remembered. makes sense it was pushed to it’s limit. maybe recheck your power requirements with an online psu calc and compare to your psu rating. and also look to see if its fan is still running and not clogged up with dust.
I only just bought a new PSU to go with the GPU upgrade. It’s 850W so should be more than enough power. Just seems odd that it’s only an issue with one game.
