I've recently built a new PC, the PC build froze randomly whilst I was browsing the internet over the first few days, however after moving things around and adding two more fans this issue seems to have been resolved. However now the same freeze occurs but when I'm gaming, not even high performance gaming, just browsing the menu screen and the computer freezes.
I am wondering if my Graphics Card is overheating or not functioning as it should as the fans are not spinning on it. At first I assumed it a temperature based thing, in which they would come on if the card got too hot but even when in the menu screen with the freezing, the fan was not on.
My build is -
- AMD FX 9590 4.7GHz Socket AM3+ 8MB L3 Cache Retail Boxed Processor
- Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 Socket AM3+ 8 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard
- Asus Radeon R7 370 4GB GDDR5 Dual-link DVI HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Graphics card
- HyperX Blue Fury Series 16GB 1866MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM (Kit of 2) Memory
- Aerocool Integrator 700W 80+ Certified PSU 12cm Black Fan Active PFC TW Caps UK Cable
- OCZ Trion 100 240GB SATAIII 2.5 Inch SSD
- WD Blue 2TB 3.5" SATA Desktop Hard Drive
- Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 4 Heatpipes/1x120mm Fan CPU Air Cooler
Whilst writing this my temperatures are:
CPU - 34
Graphics - 35
MB - 27
EDIT - So after having thought I had fixed the previous freezing when not gaming issue, my computer has just frozen 3 times in the space of an hour. I have run a memtest and no errors were found so I don't think it is that.
Can anyone help please?
