I’ll prereq this by saying it’s my first pc, built a few weeks ago. I’m basically clueless. It played fine for 2 weeks before this started happening.
Specs:
CPU: ryzen 5 1600
MOBO: asrock ab350m pro4
RAM: gskill aegis 8gb
PSU: evga 650gq
GPU: geforce 750ti, secondhand
HDD: firecuda 2.5inch sshd
The problem: the image stays the same, but nothing will respond. Keyboard shortcuts and mouse won’t respond but all the lights stay on and the fans run. Reboot and it runs seemingly fine.
When it happens: while gaming, within an hour it’ll shut down sometimes less. Browsing and lite work a couple times a day.
How to replicate: can’t seem to. I downloaded furtest to stress the gpu, hovered at 80degress for half an hour, much higher then when I game, nothing happened. Tried prime95 for an hour, nothing. Coupled the two and nothing. Memtest86+ didn’t make it freeze
Tests and other info: downloaded Seagate hdd analysis, it passed every test.
Stressed it with prime 95, fur test, opened all my programs and prime95, and worked for an hour without freezing, though very choppy
Took apart and reseated all the hardware
Deleted and reinstalled the newly installed apps since the problem started
Checked drivers
Scanned with two anti malware programs, avast and windows defender.
I’m out of ideas. I suppose the next step would be a fresh reinstall of windows, but I’d prefer not to do that. My internet is under 200kb/s so it’s a real pain to start fresh.
Any ideas on my next steps?
