Hi,
I cobbled together a bunch of parts into a nice new-to-me Proxmox server.
Unfortunately, it keeps hanging after a couple of hours no matter what I do !
This server has
These devices
So, I tried testing stuff
Memtest ran a whole day, zero errors
Then I installed windows 10, I ran Prime95 all day, next day I ran a GPU stress test in a loop, CPU at
60C, GPU at 80C all day, not a single crash, hang, error or even stutter !!
Then I installed debian 13 standard without a graphical interface, left that running a few days, no issues
Lastly I installed debian 13 with KDE desktop, left that running a few days, still no hang, no crash, nothing wrong !
Now I've reinstalled Proxmox 9 and it's always hanging after a while.
I'm 99% there's nothing exactly wrong with the hardware.
Here is what happens in the logs when it crashes (nothing)
So I'm at a loss of what to try next. I imagine something wrong about ACPI or C-States, power management ?
