Specs:
CPU: i7 3770 w/ H60 watercooler
MB: ASrock extreme 4 z77
RAM: 16gb GSKILL memory @ 1600MHz
Graphics: Asus Strix GTX 970 SLI
SSD: 250 GB Samsung 840 evo
HDD: 2 TB Western Digital Green HDD
PSU: 1000w Rosewill
Case: Anidees A17
OS:Windows 10
Mind you a run a PC shop and never have trouble fixing others PC's. But the issue I'm having with mine is so odd and I cant figure it out for the life of me.
So occasionally when booting up the PC, it will stick to a black screen, no MB information or anything pops up. It requires me either hard booting the PC back down or hitting the reset button like 5 - 6 times.
Once loaded into windows it can go anywhere from 10 mins to a good few hours, but eventually hard locks up. Cursor doesn't move, keyboard doesn't respond. And it requires a hard boot.
Also, sometimes when shutting the PC down, windows will shutdown, but the rest of the PC stays running (fans, lights, keyboard, mouse)
Things I've done:
-Ran memtest for 12 hours: passed 6 times
-Ran MHDD on my 2TB HDD, passed with flying colors (I also tested my 2tb black edition HDD I had laying around incase it was an ssd issue)
-Ran GPU stress test using furmark at 1080p extreme burn in. Went all night no issues on my other PC
-Ran prime 95, again no issues.
-Turned off all hibernation and sleep settings on the motherboard
-no overclocks on on
-Temps on my GPU and CPU are very low and at a good number
-have tried a 750w evga Bronze PSU, still the same issues
Leading me to think either one of the GPU's or motherboard is going bad. Considering it passed a furmark I'm leaning more towards the motherboard.
Any other tips that could be causing this? The PC has been on for roughly 45 mins now with no issues. Long enough for me to read a few articles and post this up.
