Hello, Over the past 2 months I have been experiencing completely random lockups that render my PC useless and force me to hard reset or shutdown. I have confirmed that this issue is related to my house's power because I brought every piece of my setup to my friend's house and my whole rig ran perfectly without an issue for almost a week until I brought it home. Within 5 minutes it locked up and I was back to troubleshooting. 3 times I've brought it to my friend's and we could not get it to do what it does at my house. I have replaced the psu, checked RAM, swapped GPUs, tested CPU temps, everything you could think of and everything is fine. For some reason I am getting these issues only at my house and its on every outlet that it does this. I will let you know that every single other device in my house works fine with the house's power. Even the family's low end HP desktop has no issues with these lockups. I am unable to even use my PC because these lockups are so frequent.
I am wondering if I need a better PSU than my 800W Raidmax Vampire. before that, I was using an 800W LEPA...both experienced lockups. A UPS also seems like it may help but I have no clue.
