As the title says, I've been having quite the issue with my computer that I've been trying to solve the past 2 weeks but without success.
Whenever I boot up my PC and just play a game/keep it idle it freezes after less than 30 minutes. If I then try to start it up again it just takes the piss and won't boot but keeps the fans and LEDs running, but whenever I wait for more than 10 minutes, it boots up again but yet again; it freezes after a while. I've tried the RAM test (something like Ramtest86) and tried installing a new OS but without success because it'll just freeze during the process.
I've tried replacing my GPU which didn't work and nor did replacing my PSU with a better one, it's not monitor related and I'll add that it did work for about 5 months before this all happened, I can not remember any change at all to the computer apart from changing my OS a few days before it failed on me.
My PC specifications are as followed:
- ASRock 970 R2.0 motherboard
- FX-6300 black edition (I have overclocked it before to 4,2ghz but turning it off didn't solve anything.)
- 1x Corsair DDR3 8gb RAM
- MSI 960 4gb Gaming GPU
- Corsair CX600m PSU
