My computer keeps freezing up after 40 minutes or so of using it. I recently switched out motherboard, cpu and gpu. All the drivers are up to date and I've uninstalled and reinstalled them. When it freezes, it's just stuck displaying the last image.

Specs:

Cpu: Amd FX-9590
Gpu: Asus GTX 970
Motherboard: Asus M5A97 R2.0
Ram: 8 gb
 
Solution
That motherboard does not support a 9590. Only a few boards support those 220w space heaters.
