    [SOLVED] W10 system freezes.

    My Windows 10 machine is randomly hard freezing, the displays remain on but the PC becomes unresponsive and requires me to switch off the PSU. I gave the PC to my friend after building a new for myself, and i wiped the drives and put in a fresh Windows copy. Since then it has been randomly...

    Are all the parts listed below compatible? (I'm new to PC building so go easy on me)

    Everything should be fine, except the CPU Cooler, as it doesn't support 1150; the socket of the 7600k and Z270 mobo. Would also recommend getting a better PSU, something like this...

    Do i the appropriate amount of PSU for a GTX 1060

    It has enough power, but i'm not too sure about the general quality of the PSU. If you can afford it, get something like a Seasonic S12II 620W for $50. Worth every penny and you can use it safely for over 5 years forward.

    Recommend psu upgrade

    A good quality one will be enough yes.

    Will this psu and motherboard be compatible with the msi geforce gtx 1060 3gb.

    Compatible? Yes. Reliable? Not Really. I'd greatly recommend the Seasonic S12II 620W, or 520W instead. Much better quality. The CX's tend to be a bit wonky. If Seasonic is unavailable, check out EVGA's G2 or B2 series, as well as XFX PRO-series and Antec.

    Recommend psu upgrade

    Any Seasonic or an EVGA G2. Recommended: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/qYTrxr/evga-power-supply-220g20550y1 https://pcpartpicker.com/product/qYTrxr/evga-power-supply-220g20550y1

    Should I upgrade my EVGA G1 750 to something better?

    Don't think it's a PSU problem.. It's definitely powerful enough, but it has had some problems during its time. But since it works on W3 etc it seems to be something else causing bluescreens, have you tried reinstalling Doom or Wolfen, as some files might be corrupt? Also, can you provide the...
