Hey guys,
As of a couple of weeks my games freeze and stay frozen unless I force a restart on them. The ones, on which it happens the most are LoL and CS GO. The thing is, it doesn't keep freezing throughout the day, rather it does once or twice a day and no more. The game randomly freezes, however i can still hear the sound from the game. Once I restart the game it rarely crashes again, and if it does it's in a couple of hours. I tried re-installing windows as i thought it would fix the issue, i tried running different anti-viruses thinking it's some kind of virus or malware but no luck. I read that tweaking the power options could sometimes work, however no luck there as well.

Specs
Intel Core i7-6700
16GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980ti
XFX Pro 650W
Asus H170 Pro Gaming

how are the temps of both your gpu and cpu? probably and issue with overheating , if its unusually high you may need to find a better cooling solution or clean up some parts, or maybe connection issue with your online access perhaps try a ping test
