Hi guys. So I have a problem. I just made my new build which contains the following :
AMD Fx 6300 CPU
M5A97 PRO motherboard
R9 270x
8GB Crucial Ballistix Elite 1866
500W PSU
My pc was just freezing randomly and I thought my Hdd was the problem because it was old and almost dead, so I replaced it with a brand new one. But my PC kept freezing randomly... sometimes after 5-10 minutes and sometimes after even 3 hours.
So this morning everything worked fine. However, in the afternoon when I tried to boot up my PC, it wouldn't boot. I checked out and the CPU led was red. So I took it out to check if the pins were straight, and they were. I took the cmos battery out for reset, I used only 1 RAM module, and nothing fixed it. I reassambled my whole pc and made sure every cable plugged correctly. Nothing worked...

Can you guys please tell me what can I do?
