Hi.. My RIG's setup is as follows:
i7 920 (no overclocking)
HD7870
OCZ Vertex SSD (OS Disk)
80G WD HDD
2TB WD HDD
6x 4G RAM
Cooler Master V4
Recently, my rig will freeze for no reason, after waiting awhile, it doesnt blue screen or do a dump.. It will freeze there until I reset it manually..
I've checked, CPU temp's ok (60 degrees C), load < 20%.. Scanned 80G HDD, was ok.. (yet to scan 2TB HDD and SSD).. did memtest, all ok..
Usually it freezes after startup, within 3 to 10 mins..
Something I found strange.. after startup, if I load the CPU immediately, start some games and VM (CPU load > 50%), it wont freeze.. after that, when I turn off the game and VM, it usually runs for a few hours before it freezes.. However, if I leave my CPU load constantly > 50% (with the game and VM always on), it wont freeze even if it stays on for 1 to 2 days..
Any idea?

The mobo + CPU, at least 3+ years.. I also hope its not a MB component issue.. the past 1 day was fine, no hang.. it's kinda random.. if re-installing helps.. no choice but to try...
