So I built a new PC, (See specs)

Asus Maximus IV
i7 4790k (Not OC'd)
NVidia 780TI
2 intel SSD's
16GB G.Skill ram
corsair water cooling.



So here is what is going on. I built the PC about a month ago, it works PERFECTLY, I haven't had a blue screen a crash or anything with games or anything, my ram works and is identified by the comp etc....

The only problem I have is: When I'm rendering videos 70% of the time, my computer freezes HARD, like I can't move a mouse, I can't CTRL+ALT+Delete nothing. I have to hold the power button to restart the comp.

I don't get this with ANYTHING, BUT video rendering.

It does this on both Sony Vegas, and Adobe Premiere (The only two video programs I have)

What I've tried: I checked CPU and GPU temps with speedfan and they are at a steady 34C-40C. I updated my GPU drivers to the newest..

Any ideas?

Side note, I just did a windows memory test, and it seemed to run fine. And I am currently doing a "Silverbench" CPU stress test. Its been running my CPU at 90-95% for 5:00 minutes now. My CPU temp is 39C. And no lock up.

It was set to power off HDD's after 20 minutes. Although I don't know how that could be my problem, I've had it freeze as i'm rendering the video and surfing the web. :/
So I changed it to "never" but like I said,..I kinda doubt its the issue.

I updated my GPU drivers to the latest, and I checked ROG and ASUS for mobo/bios updates..and couldn't find anything.
