So, good news! It seems that setting my ram speed to 2666 MHz, as the i7-9700k specs list, seemed to fix the freezing issues. Is there any reason I can't use the full 3200 MHz that the ram is capable of? Anyone know if this is a CPU limitation or motherboard limitation? I know that the XMP is...

I see, that makes sense. I'll have to tinker around in the BIOS because I'm not sure how to manual set RAM speeds and voltage, but I'm sure there's a way. I'll just refer to the manual. And I think I'll buy an 850W PSU just to cover my bases. Thank you all so much! I really appreciate all the...

My old build used a GTX 960 and i5-4750, so definitely not as power hungry. I just realized I have 2 x 4Gb sticks of ddr3 to switch in and test, as well as my old GPU. Also, yes, I am using the DP port that came with my monitor.

Yeah, it does seem very random. I actually just recently started using 2 power cables on my GPU instead of just 1 with the split at the end, and haven't really noticed a difference.

I do have the XMP profile set for 3200MHz in the BIOS. Hopefully this is part of the problem. I will try adjusting that after work and will report back.

Thanks, I'll try that after work. However, it has also crashed while playing League of Legends on highest settings at 144 fps. It hurt me to do this on my new 2080 super, but I was able to run League of legends at low settings at 60 fps for 3 hours without a crash, which seems to further suggest...

It's possible, but based on the timing of the freezes this seems unlikely to me. It has never happened in a loading screen or anything. For example, in Remnant, I will load up the first area, and just walk around until it freezes. I'm not sure if my reasoning is correct here, but based on that...

I've updated the original post with some more component information, as well as more description of the freezes. Not really, however I forgot to mention in my original post that I am only using the HDD for minor file storage. The 1Tb SSD is where the games are stored, and the 250Gb m.2 SSD is...

I have recently "upgraded" my PC, keeping only the case, 1Tb SSD for games, 1Tb HDD storage, and 650W PSU. The new build consists of: *Running Windows 10, fresh install on m.2 drive EVGA 2080 Super i7 9700k G. Skill 2x8 Gb ddr4 3200 Samsung Evo 250Gb m.2 boot drive Corsair H100x CPU cooler...
