Hey guys!
Recently I've been having this REALLY annoying issue with my rig that I can't quite put my finger on. I have had my rig for over a year with no problems. Basically what's happening is my PC will go unresponsive to any clicks or keyboard input (even ctrl+alt+del) for about 1-2 minutes. The start menu also goes unresponsive as hovering my mouse or clicking on anything on the start menu will produce absolutely no effect. The strangest thing about it all is that most of the time when these freezes happen, different games/applications respond to the freeze differently. For instance, I have two monitors and I'll be playing Black Desert Online on one while I browse on the other monitor. I'll click a link on a website and the website will sit there looking like its trying to load, but its actually doing nothing. Then I try clicking over to another tab in Chrome and while yes, I can click the tab, trying to load up ANY website results in trying to load the page UNTIL the freeze finishes. Then I notice Chrome isn't the only thing not responding or loading. I look over at my game and my inputs aren't registering. Clicking buttons and such does nothing, yet people are still talking in the chat, running around me and fighting. Other games like League of Legends I never experience any of these things, so while every other application will be frozen and unresponsive, League will continue running just fine as if there is no problem. However, if I alt-tab out of League it then becomes unresponsive or completely frozen as well.
Other times its a hard freeze in which not only are inputs unresponsive, but the applications themselves are going unresponsive as well. Chrome will be going white screen, black desert will be frozen in time (similar to old Windows95 freezes).
Now, every time any of this happens if I wait about 1-2 minutes everything SUPER SPEEDS back to working. Any clicks or inputs that I did DURING these 1-2 minutes finally register in the exact ORDER that I did them. Applications go crazy for a second as they finally register all the inputs that I did and then they're back to normal. This will happen about once every 30 minutes to once every 1-3 hours depending on the night.
I have ran Memtest86 for 24 iterations and zero errors with my 24GB ram last night.
I have ran Furmark's Burn-In test which results in an average of 147FPS and GPU temperature never getting above 72 degrees C at 98% load. No bluescreens, artifacts, or crashes, and no freezes.
I have monitored my heat levels during gameplay and other various times and my GPU never exceeds 60 degrees Celsius and my CPU stays at about 40-45 degrees celsius (though it did reach 52 degrees for a split second at one point)
My rig:
250gb Crucial SSD (OS and applications)
Western Digital 500gb (data, game saves, backup)
Gigabytye 990fxa-UD3 motherboard
FX 8150 (no OC)
EVGA GTX 1070
650w PSU
24gb ram
