So basically when i play gmod,minecraft,cod,anything i got a sound loop(buzzing) and pc freezes,becomes unresponsive and i have to press the power off on the back.I have tried everything about this on threads like this,nothing helps.I have underclocked my ram but it still freezes and i suspect ram as the main issue

Processor: Pentium E5200 @ 3.33GHz-OCed
Memory: 4096MB RAM

Graphic card: Nvidia Geforce GT 630 fan is at 100%
PSU: lc power lc420h-8 420w

Thanks in advance!

I would assume this is actually a faulty power supply, memory would usually show up as bsod's. I recommend you swap out your power supply and see what happens.

Yeah I would start with a new psu, something in the 500 range would give you a little bit of room to expand.

I wish I could offer you some good advice, but, alas I cannot. I had the exact same problem with a custom CyberPower machine that I bought five years ago. This problem is the herpes of the PC population: it's not fatal, but it will NEVER go away. I tried EVERYTHING: new memory, flashed the BIOS, updated drivers, new PSU, registry fixes, every diagnostic test know to humankind, blah, blah, blah. The problem started a week after getting the computer and never went away. It still does it! There are a lot of other threads about this problem. Almost all of them fail to find a solution. My solution, eventually, was to retire the old machine and get a new one. (The sad thing was, when the computer worked, it worked great.) If there is a solution to this mysterious and seemingly unfixable problem, I'd sure love to know it.

I can almost guarantee you the problem is your psu, it is usually the first to go bad and it can cause every single one of your issues. A faulty motherboard is the only other issue I can think of that would cause the exact same set of issues. The motherboard is usually the last part of a computer to fail so replace the psu.
