I bought all these parts about a month ago and since then have tried about 8 different windows installs (windows 8 and windows 7), and for some reason it will freeze on me for 30 seconds or so every few minutes. there are some triggers but for the most part random. Runescape was one of them(old school ya play with my little brother :p) even 1 eve online client. I dont think it starts freezing until after i do a windows updates. im running a fresh install of windows before any updates and only have mozilla and the latest nvidia drivers installed. so far no freezes. I built this thing to play ffxiv but at this rate do not see myself being able to play it. when i view event viewer the event ids are always random. I have been all over the internet trying to fix this myself but i just cant seem to find the issue.

My Build:
MB: asrock 990fx extreme4
CPU: Fx-8350
SSD: Corsair Neutron Series GTX
OS: Windows 8 64 bit home.
DRIVE: asus br drive
GPU: MSI 770 gtx lighting
PSU: Antec High Current Gamer Series HCG-750
MEMORY: 2 x 4GB HyperX Beast 1600mhz

You could try a BIOS update. If updating your drivers didn't work maybe a BIOS update could fix it. They fix a lot of problems. It's just that if you mess up you ruined your motherboard unless it's got 2 BIOS chips. That's why some people don't recommend doing it until it's the last option.
