Here's my problem, i just ditched an old crappy stock setup and bought all the components to build a gaming pc.
I updated with all the driver downloads from the manufacturers website because my optical drive mysteriously stopped working.
My res is at 1920x1080 and i went to watch a youtube video and my computer freezes and crashes. Now, amongst all that new software and drivers, my GPU manufacturer released new drivers and i updated my gpu drivers. Stole the 1 tb hard drive from my old rig to install in the new with windows already loaded on it.
Cant figure out why my computer freezes while playing videos, off hdd or streaming.

Specs:
-CPU-AMD FX-9590 8 CORE 4.7GHZ
-MOBO-ASUS 970 PRO GAMING/AURA
-GPU-XFX AMD RADEON RX 470 4 GB DUAL FAN
-PSU-CORSAIR CX850M SEMI MODULAR
-RAM-CORSAIR VENGEANCE 24GB 3x8gb
COOLING-CORSAIR H100i V2 240mm LIQUID/WATER COOLING.

Running most current version of windows 10 x64 home.

Figured it out, did a clean install of windows and my drivers. Figured out my sata cable to my optical drive was loose on my mobo so it wasnt reading fully. No more crashing. Now my windows 10 home is not activated though and i upgraded from win 8.1 a long time ago. Dont know how to activate.
