Lately I've been noticing that when playing games that my screen is a bit jittery and laggy. My FPS never dips below 60fps so I dont think its lag spikes. A few days ago while playing csgo, my game started to lag real hard and then the audio would loop itself and soon the entire computer was frozen. My HDD light never lit back up until the next restart. The only way for me to fix the problem temporarily was a hard restart. One time it happened 5 times in less than 10 minutes. Everytime I freeze, I would restart my pc and log back onto the game i was playing. And then less than 60 seconds, my computer would freeze again.

Can this be my ram, cpu, mobo, psu?
 
Solution
Issue resolved it was my ram issue. I have ran a memtest 86+ and passed 6 times with no errors. But i decided to take things a little further and replaced it with another set of ram. PNY 2x4gb 1600mhz 1.6volts ram replaced with Corsair Vengeance 2x4gb 1600mhz 1.5volts. My games now run more smoothly. I guess memtest just didnt pick up the issue.

Updated: This is also due to a old/faulty powersupply on the edge of its life.


Full system specs please.
