Hello everyone.
I recently updated my rig, but only motherboard and CPU. The rest is the same, and I have never had that problem before. So here is the deal: My PC freezes after some time. Freeze is quite hard, everything stops responding, even the keyboard LED lights when I press Caps Lock. I can't even use restart button, just have to long press power button to turn it off. I tried: Reinstalling Windows, setting everything in bios on Default, changing voltage, using XMP, using RAM at 1333hz and 1600hz. Nothing workd, it just freezes. But then, I tried to give a PC some stress. So, I started playing crysis 3 at max graphics. I played more than 2 hours and nothing happened. When I finished, I decided to check my facebook and youtube, and after watching a video, it froze after 2 mins. I can't say it for sure, but as I remember, every time PC froze, I was surfing the web.
What I'm going to do: I downloaded AIDA64 extreme edition, I plan to stress each component until I see what causes the problem. If I do not discover anything, I'll bring it to my local techsupport team, and ask them to remove and change every component, if that didn't work, then it's a motherboard problem.
Before that, I would like to try anything you can offer to fix this problem. I'm quite desperate, plus I'm low on budget.
So PLEASE, may be you had a similar problem and solved it? What should I do?
Any help would be appriciated.
Thank you in advance
