Question 
Hey everyone! I'm new here so I hope I am able to find some help!

Little background info. I find myself to usually be a very technical person and I know PCs inside and out, but I think it would be best if I asked for advice on this issue. I built a custom "console" PC, that I use for Launchbox to emulate hundreds of games, and everything works perfectly, except I recently came across a BSOD when playing Dolphin after a few days.

While playing a random Gamecube game (don't remember which one), the game froze for maybe 10 seconds and the BSOD came up with the video_tdr_failure error code. I did some research and many people were saying that it could be because of outdated drivers, which I did end up having some, so I updated everything completely. I haven't played much since, but the games run smoothly when I run them, I am just afraid I am pushing my machine when it really isn't supposed to be running Dolphin at all.

I believe I have plenty of power but you guys know more than me I am sure. Also maybe I am not running Dolphin at the correct settings for AMD. I'm new to the emulation scene. Let me know what you guys think!

Thanks so much!

I am running:

OS: Windows 10 x64
CPU: AMD Ryzen™ 5 2400G
GPU: Radeon™ RX Vega 11 Graphics
RAM: 8GB

As long as you´re using Dual-Channel mode for the RAM sticks, you´re good to go with the Vega GPUs (their performance depends mostly on it).
