Hey guys,
I'm running a PC I built myself about 3 years ago, and it's been acting up the last month or two. Sorry if this isn't the right thread for this post.
Almost everyday my pc crashes about 15-30 minutes after startup, usually during gameplay of any game. Though sometimes this happens during regular browsing.
During the crash, the screen freezes and the speakers emit a load clicking noise. Typically I have to hard reset, but occasionally the pc will restart itself (it reset itself just now after I ran malewarebytes).
I don't know if this is because I'm overtaxing my cpu and it's time to upgrade (I'll post my parts list below), or a registry issue, a virus, a software conflict. Maybe it's just time to scrap the pc.
The thing to note is that this usually only occurs once or twice a day. After the reset it usually smooth sailing. But on bad days this happens three or four times in a row. So I'm getting pretty exhausted by it.
If anyone has any experience with this issue I would so greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much
