Hey guys, i have been having a problem with my rig freezing then recovering sometimes i have to reset, i also get fps drops in game from 100+ fps down to 20. When it started i assumed it was the memory so i put in fresh corsair vengeance 8gb (two 4gb sticks) all temperatures are normal around 50 - 70 i have noticed my GPU clock goes from 1250 to 300MHz when in game but when i test with msi kombuster i get normal results i put my old gpu in an still get same freezing/bad fps.
Specs:
Mobo: MSI 970 gaming
RAM corsair vengeance ddr3 1600MHz 8GB
GPU: MSI Radeon RX 470 8gb
CPU: AMD FX 6300
OS: windows 10
