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

    I have had the same issue for two years and it has progressively gotten worse. I use Ubuntu and have very similar hardware. The piece of hardware I have traced my issue to is the 5700XT. I ran some Phoronix stress tests on my video card and reproduced the same crashes. I also looked up the MCE errors that were being produced and they also pointed towards that card. I’ve given up trying to fix it and I will be purchasing a different graphics card soon.

    To diagnose your issue, do you see any MCE errors when your system reboots? If not, run journalctl and grep for ‘MCE’.
