I few days ago I posted about my games freezing on my new pc here:

https://lemmy.ml/post/41956931

I thought my issue was an outdated motherboard bios and also having screen locking/sleep mode on. It appears that was wrong because I am still having the issue. I have come prepared this time though! I have several proton logs of games freezing up. Some of the logs are the game freezing and continuing, other logs are the gsne freezing and completely stopping.

I also had a weird error popup that would come up when enabling proton logs for cyberpunk. I put that image with the proton logs. I put in my journalctl with the most recent cyberpunk freeze/crash that happened as well.

I am beginning to think that it is a driver issue with my 5070ti. I found this post on the linux gaming subreddit that has many people expressing the same issue:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1nn2d5e/games_freezing_randomly_until_i_alt_tab_into_the/

My overall concern is if this is a hardware issue rhat I need to get rma’d or just a linux issue.

Any help is appreciated!! Thank you all for your time!

    I have a ram stick going bad. I only figured out it was a ram issue because I started getting “out of memory” crashes while doing things that used to work perfectly fine. The problem is, I only have one stick and ram costs more than my computer now.

      Check your warranty. I recently found a bad stick I bought years ago. Turns out lots of ram has a lifetime warranty

        If only, if only. It’s a pre-built I got from HP. I never would have if not for the fact that I was able to get it for a steal at only $300, which was about the price of its graphics card at the time.
