Hello! I recently built a computer for the first time, I've been experiencing quite alot of freezing
my specs are:
EVGA 500B 80+ bronze power supply? (fairly sure its 500w)
MSI 1050ti OC edition
Ryzen 1200
ASRock AB350M Pro 4
GSkill Aegis 3000mhz 1 stick of 8gb DDR4 ram
- I re-used an old hard-drive on this build which I suspect may be the culprit
My computer normally boots, but crashes during game loading screens < mouse/keyboard go unresponsive and the caps light also doesnt work unless i hard restart. The thing is that when I do manage to load the game, it works perfectly for hours with hardly any freezes - up until a loading screen pops up again. I've been playing alot of Resident Evil 7 on high settings without a hitch for sometimes multiple hours on end - the biggest problem was getting into the game as it freezes quite frequently after booting < but after disabling some boot applications it doesnt seem to happen as often. this isnt exclusive to gaming as weird things like opening a chrome tab or clicking on a link seemed to trigger it sometimes - but not often. If I can run demanding games with this hardware at times for hours, why would it conk out like it does?
I've been told its likely my HDD or my RAM < my bios has all sorts of settings enabled for the ram which I have no clue about. I did lower the speed of it and I think the freezing is less frequent?
I've disabled quiet n cool, reinstalled the OS twice, tried to find issues with the sound card thus far. I'm fairly sure my motherboard had OC settings as its default for the cpu and RAM, could it be one of these causing instability aswell?
Could this be my ram or HDD, bios settings, or an entirely different issue?
P.S all the temps are usually around 30-40C so I doubt its an overheating issue.
Thank you! I hope you help me, I've been going nuts for the past week trying to find the issue.
