I recently had a friend build a new PC for me with mostly new parts.
Parts in:
-Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 (NEW)
-AMD FX 8320 8 Core (NEW)
-XFX 650W TS SERIES FULL WIRED 80+(NEW)
-ASUS MOBO M5A97 R2.0 AM3+(NEW)
-2 TB SEAGATE HARD DRIVE (FROM PREVIOUS PC)
-8GB RAM (FROM PREVIOUS PC)
The way it freezes: Completely stops at whatever frame and if audio is playing that stops as well. If I have my desktop open it'll stay like that. The only way to temporarily fix is by restarting my PC. From when it starts it could take anywhere from 5 minutes to 5 hours.
I've taken it in to be fixed at a repair shop and they've returned it to me 4 times saying it was fixed when it wasn't.
I'm gonna be starting college this fall so a computer is really necessary.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. I'm almost sure it's the MOBO. That's what the repair shop thinks now.
