I recently built my first computer with the help of an experienced friend and It ran well the first day but then it started to freeze. It first froze when I was testing if it could run high end games on higher settings by running crysis 2 on ultra. But before the freeze I still had high fps and the game was running great. I have also had freezes when I was watching a video on youtube. I have also left my computer idle for about an hour and came back to it being frozen multiple times.
I have
Asus crosshair v formula z amd mobo
Amd fx 9590 4.7ghz processor
Corsair dominator platinum 2*8gig 1833ddr3 memory
Evga nvidia GeForce gtx 770
Thermaltake toughpower 750watt
Cooler master nepton 280L
And I might be forgetting something
So if you have any questions just ask
Please help me find out what is causing this

http:// the result was a super confusing text document, and sorry about the name of the file it was supposed to be called the problem but is called the poblem instead.
and i am going to try and buy a 1000 watt power supply as that could be the problem.
