    Anyone else fold here? If so does trying to run these two cause your computer to crash? At first I thought it was my overclock that was stable but even reverting the overclock back to stock, I'm still crashing. Have an 1800x under a custom hard-line water loop and a GTX 1070.

    Edit: No blue screen so there was no dump file and also event viewer only lists a single critical event of the very uninformative "system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first"

    Thanks!

    The fact that there was nothing in Event Viewer beyond the generic Critical Event seems a bit fishy and almost hints it has nothing to do with the OS and upwards. Errors like that are usually tied to loss of power. However, I wouldn't be surprised if Folding@home and MapleStory are competting for the same resources, given the fact that MapleStory in general has horrible memory managment let alone a version from 7-8 years ago.

    P.s I don't personally use Folding@home
