Hello,
For the past week, whenever I would play any games (Team fortress 2, duke nukem 3D and LIMBO for example) I would be playing for 5 minutes and my whole computer would lock up. The lights on my keyboard and mouse would still work but they are unresponsive. Eventually after 2-5 minutes it would resume and in some cases close any applications I had open (firefox, music, games, etc). I have run a memtest but that came out all fine, checked my hard drive for bad sectors and that is all clean. My PC is not yet a year old and this is really frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!
Specs:
OS: Windows 7 home premium 64bit
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.2GHz
Memory: 8192MB RAM
2 x 4GB Kingston 99U5471-012.A00LF
Motherboard: ASUS P8H61-M LE/USB3
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650
BIOS version: 4401
HDD: Hitachi HDS721010CLA630
I don't know what my power supply is because I'm not experienced with pulling them apart. I can open the side but I can't see my powersupply because there is something on the side of the case that is holding up my motherboard. I also don't have any spare parts to test or any extra money to buy some right now but If I know what them problem is then I can replace it.
Side note: When it does freeze up it loops the last sound which turns into a loud buzzing through my headset. It has worked perfectly fine until this last week
Thank you for any help in advance!
