I have had my custom built PC for 3 months now and its very frustrating that its keeps freezing when trying to play games. I attempted memtest to stress test my memory and no errors were found.
When I tried to use Prime95 on the other hand the entire PC froze and a notification appeared saying there was a hardware problem. When I tested the CPU with Prime95 the usage for the CPU went up to 93% for around 3 minutes then the entire PC froze.
I am sure that there is a hardware issue but am finding it hard to diagnose exactly what.
