    Exact same issue as mentioned in:

    https://linustechtips.com/topic/1223050-new-pc-strange-windows-freezes-probable-cause-nzxt-cam


    Completely new pc slowly freezing up. Only able to move the mouse, forcing a hard shutdown. Disabling CAM on startup fixed it. I hope this bug gets fixed soon, I was doubting between Corsair and NZXT for my AIO but went with NZXT because I love the look of the cooler. But this makes me never want to buy an NZXT product again..

    Getting exactly the same issue using x73 on a Ryzen 5800x MSI Mag x570 Tomahawk. It got to the point I did a clean install of Windows to find it. Every few days I added one application install and left it. Eventually, installing CAM and within 24 hours I got the hard lock. Uninstalled and not had the issue again for weeks with all my other software installed again.

    same issue with a Ryzen 5600X, RX6800XT. I am sure CAM is the issue as I reinstall windows from scratch and tested it with only CAM installed.

    Ditto. PC works fine without CAM, but hangs at least once a day when enabled - as pewr thread here: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1223050-new-pc-strange-windows-freezes-probable-cause-nzxt-cam/page/20/

    I have the same problem. When CAM is running my system freezes. Apparently it's just a problem with the new Ryzen processors.
    I have deinstaled CAM and everything is going perfectly. Even without the Razer Synapse and ICUE, Windows freezes, which is not the reason. If I deactivate CAM after starting Windows and close it, the pump no longer runs correctly. This does not work for me. I have deinstalled it and use another program to control the pump. Please fix that!

    same here. Every time NZXT CAM just freezes my PC during the screensaver. So I have to remember to close NZXT every time after my computer boots. Otherwise within 1 minute of starting the screensaver the computer will be totally frozen. Please fix!!

    Do you have icue as well? I’m having issues with that causing crashes as well. I’ve never had a CAM related crash.

    Are you sure this is a CAM issue? If so, I am almost certain that providing some evidence here will help you get traction on the issue.


    I run a 3900X with an Aorus Master x570 and the z63 and do not have such an issue.
