So the problem Is that the screen will randomly freeze. Asus is taking days to get back to me with smalls blerbs of information.
I have tried replacing the components one at a time from my wife's working PC and have concluded that it is the Mobo. I ran Asus' Diagnosis tool that they sent me and everything came back good.

It was freezing the screen constantly at first. It even froze the screen during a windows install (outside of the OS). Now it doesn't freeze often.

When it freezes now: after a Match or two in League of Legends. It will freeze after the load in, or when I select a champion (portrait click and when they start saying their little catch phrase) but not all the time.

The one thing I can do to get it to freeze consistently, every, single, time. Is about 3 seconds after getting to the title screen in a game called Gnomoria. It freezes every time while being able to run 3d games no problem.

The Freeze: No fan speed drop. Able to button reset. Nothing else Notable.

Thank you for reading,
Please message me if i need to edit my post to look better (don't do forums often)
