Hey, For a while my Computer has just started to freeze on certain games such as League of Legends, Left 4 Dead 2, Civilization 5 and some others. When i freeze, i cant do anything except for move my mouse around while all other functions are stopped at that exact moment. Help would be appreciated.

Specs are:

Intel i7-3770 @ 3.40 GHz
AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series
Intel HD Graphics 4000
DirectX 11
G-Skill RipJaws 4GB Ram (Not Sure what type exactly)

Note: Im not that good with Tech Stuff, sorry about that

Hi there IKIMICH,

You need to start testing different components of your system in order to rule them out as a possible cause of your issue.
You can start with the HDD. Test it with a brand specific(or a third party one) testing tool. The results will show you the overall health status of the drive.
If the HDD is fine and the issues persists, you can test your RAM.
It may be a good idea to measure the temps of your system as well.

Cheers,

prime95 (smallfft) with coretemp (look after the cpu frequency, if it drops or not), post temp after 10minutes
furmark (burnin), post temp after 10minutes

install memtest86+ on a usb thumb drive and boot from it

benchmark your system with 3dmark (firestrike) and post just the link of the result, which comes up at the end
