Okay everyone. This is my first [strike]thread[/strike] post so apologies if I post in the wrong location or if I do something incorrectly.
My Desktop has been to numerous PC repair shops and other than taking my money all I have learned is that there is nothing wrong with my computer, or so they say. My PC crashes by freezing on one frame. No input is accepted at this point. The only way to get it off this frame is to hard reset It has always froze while gaming but not necessarily anything stressful. It froze during CS:GO. It usually freezes after an hour or two but recently it has crashed when the games have just started (past main menu into the actually playing part). I also am not trying to play at ultra quality. I have tested my gpu with furmark for over 12 hours without a crash. I was told that it might be a psu issue so I upgraded to a 700w 80 bronze unit. Then I tried testing with Prime95 on small FTTs and it crashed in 10 minutes. I tried again and currently writing this it has been 20 minutes without a crash.
I thought it was a bad processor but the more I read all I saw was that if the processor is bad then the system will not boot.
My build
msi 760gma-p34(fx) motherboard
AMD fx 6300 6 core processor
EVGA Geforce GTX 1060 6gb
cooler master hyper 212 evo cpu cooler
EVGA 700B 80 bronze PSU
16GB (2 8gb sticks) PNY DDR3 RAM
Linksys Wireless adapter
OS is were it gets weird. I am dual booting Kali Linux and Windows 10 but in the near future I plan on getting Linux its own hard drive to prevent any sort of error a dual boot may cause.
I am using a surge protector power strip
