Hello, I will just explain the full story in case it helps, sorry if its long.
Specifications: CPU: Intel i7 7700k (overclocked to 4.8ghz) Graphics Card: Nvidia gtx 1080 Ram: Vengeance 2133mhz ddr4 8gb x 2 PSU: Corsair CX600
Recently i have bought a new GPU (Nvidia GTX 1080) and a new CPU (i7 7700k) that replaced my old Nvidia GTX 780Ti and i7 4790K. I Have also had to replace the motherboard to a LGA 1151 Socket one so that the new i7 works on it, and changed my old 16gb ddr3 ram to a new 16gb ddr4 ram. I have made sure i followed the right guides in order to install this all properly. So far, the PC is working great and runs great, except for when i use a CPU Stress test or simply a game or a program that uses 100% of the CPU power, where the computer starts to freeze for over 30-45 seconds then come back for a few seconds and then freeze again. This happens about 5-8 minutes into the CPU stress test. The CPU was overclocked at 4.8ghz with a 1.295 core voltage. I have tried playing around with this by putting to 4.5ghz 1.245 core voltage and even putting the cpu back to stock 4.2ghz, however the issue kept happening, even when i increased the core voltage up to 1.4v to just test it out. The temperatures of the CPU are always alright becuase i have a corsair h60 liquid cooler and the temperatures are always around 70-75 degrees at max cpu load. I have tried taking out the CPU and cooler and reseating them and the same with the ram sticks and gpu, however the issue kept re-occuring where the computer freezes up. Just a note that the computer does not get a BSOD, it just keeps freezing up. Most high end games i run are fine due to them not using 100% of the cpu power, so the games run perfectly well, the issue only occurs when i use 100% of the cpu power. I am not sure what to do anymore and i am not sure what the issue could be anymore, i have looked up plenty of answers on Google and other places and have found no solutions yet. My next plan would be to replace the PSU, however i am not sure if that would help at all. I have no idea what to do otherwise. Does anyone know why this issue occurs and are there any ways to fix it?
I am not sure if i missed any info however if there is any other information that needs to be given just let me know.
Thank you very much.
