Pretty much the title, It always happens while I am either playing games or watching netflix, The screen stops and then i can either hear everything still or it starts violently buzzing. It sometimes goes back to normal, but others i have to force restart it. I have looked at other posts like this but none have fixed my issue. I just bought new parts for this computer because my old one was doing the same thing. AMD fx8350 CPU / ASUS Sabertooth 990fx motherboard/ GTX 970 GPU / Samsung SSD. The only things that are the same are the ram (4 sticks of 2g mem) and my OS Win 7.
I really don't know whats going on, any help is appreciated.

I know of 4 issues which cause this problem:
1. Either you are using a non-genuine windows and have used RemoveWAT for removing activation. In this situation, remove RemoveWAT and use Windows Loader instead. RemoveWAT normally causes a lot of freezing.
2. Update you drivers.
3. Take out your RAM, clean it and push it back properly. Dust can cause this.
4. Ensure heat dissipation of your CPU is proper. Excessive heat generation can cause your PC to fry up its internal parts and cause such issues.
