Hello, I thought it was about time I ask help from people after spending so much time trying to fix and understand the problems myself. Basically, when my pc was first built, it ran great and had no issues. Now, it'll freeze (lockup completely/require full reset) whenever I'm doing cpu extensive tasks, mostly gaming. I've run memtest86 and my ram is fine.
The freezing occurs randomly. Sometimes I can play a game for a couple hours without issue and sometimes it'll freeze within an hour. I believe I either have a voltage issue or a cpu overheating issue. My gpu never goes over 50°c and freezes at around 45°c +/- 2°c. I've scoured some info online and there's a split view on the max acceptable temperature for my cpu, which normally gets to 65°c when gaming with all fans at max. I also have a corsair liquid cooler that was installed by at a computer store. I've used ddu to uninstall my display drivers as well. I'm fairly new to overclocking and have always kept my voltages to default so any help with this issue is greatly appreciated!
Here's my sytem information:
Cpu: Amd fx 9590
Gpu: Nvidia gtx 970
Ram: 16gb ddr3
Mobo: Sabertooth 990 fx R2.0
OS: Windows 10
