For the past few weeks (maybe months), I've been experiencing Chrome crashes, both complete crashes (closing absolutely everything) and occasional crashes (only blocking a specific page with access violation and other codes). It's really annoying, because every time I have to restore the Chrome tabs and rearrange them between desktops views. Tried to update Windows and all, but nothing was able to fix it, until I came across a few reddit posts that was able to give me some cues.

And I think it was all related with my CPU and MB -- and maybe RAM.

• My PC specification:
  • CPU: I9-14900K
  • RAM: Kingston Fury 2x32GB 6000Mhz
  • MB: Aorus Z790 Elite X Wi-Fi 7 rev 1.2

This was everything I did 2 days ago, and I am experiencing absolutely no crash since then (I was experiencing about 5–7 crashes a day -- heavy usage of Chrome with more than a 100 processes running with multiple profiles and multiple Windows desktops views):

First about my motherboard

I didn't see anyone reporting that updating the BIOS got the issue fixed, but since my MB was 3 versions outdated, I chose to update it. I was on BIOS version F7 and I updated to version F10.

BIOS config (CPU/RAM)

On the F7 version I was already on the intel extreme profile (much better than the mb default settings -- main culprit of CPU degradation, all that buzz that was on the internet last year and this year).

I saw some reddit post reporting the same chrome issues and that they got it fixed by changing the intel profile from "Extreme" to "Performance". So this time, I chose this option instead of "Performance".

I did enable RAM XMP Profile too (it was already enabled on my previous BIOS settings)

Oh, and before updating the BIOS, I also updated some drivers through the Gigabyte Control Center (I don't know if it helped with anything).

About RAM

I use a program called "Wise Memory Opmizer" to clean unused/cached RAM, but it was cleaning every time the RAM usage was above 30%. I changed this to 90%. Also, I don't even know if this has something to do with Chrome Crashes.

Conclusion

And this is it. Now I am almost 3 full days with absolutely no crash (it was a hell, crashing 5-7 times per day and pages getting blocked all the time too), but somehow all this actions was able to fix it.

Recap:

• Updated BIOS version from F7 to F10
• BIOS Setting: Intel Default Profile to "Performance" instead of "Disabled" or "Extreme"
• BIOS Setting: enabled XMP Profile 1 (it was already enabled on my previous BIOS)
• Windows Program (RAM Wise Memory Opmizer): it was cleaning when RAM usage was above 30%, and I got it changed to 90%.
• Also, I updated my GPU (not related) and some Gigabyte drivers (not sure if it was related)

Hope this helps you all to get rid of this hell of a problem.

Peace.
