BF3 causes my pc to freeze Randomly during game play always about 20 to 30min in with no prior warning i have been dealing with this issue for months now it has me frustrated in the worse way....
my pc specs
Running windows 7 64bit
Asus p5q-e
q9400 2.6 @ 3.6
8gig DDR2 8500 RAM
Xfire hd5770's
120gig SSD
so I have stress test the crap out of everything using multiple tools such as furmark ,memtest, prime95 OCCT intelburn Test and i get no errors in any test temps are good for both CPU and GPU
I play many other games such as arma's GTA's sports games Counter strike's COD's etc... all of which do not cause my PC to just randomly freeze for no reason..... i noticed for some reason in Americas Army 3 I have the same issue as BF3 where my pc will freeze 20 to 30 min into a game
I have even went as far as swaping PSU's and bought new cables and added a new power bar and switched outlets and still same thing
I have tried every configuration in the bios i can think of... and yes even the default settings BF3 will freeze my pc
took off the crossfire card and tried each card seperatly and even tried underclocking the gpus...I tried multiple setting within the game itself
I took out each stick of ram and tested/tried multiple combinations
made sure no USB devices CDs etc were causeing it
i reinstalled the game many many times both dling it right from orgin and from the actual disc
Drivers all up to date....
even formated
sorry for this huge post but like i said its been a few months I did alot.... there is much more i did as well like took apart the pc re installing heatsink with some fresh artic silver and cleaning the components.....
I dont know what else to do i would throw this thing in the garbage long a ass time ago if i could....
part of me thinks its hardware but the tests say otherwise.....
P.S
It freezes my PC NO BSOD no prior indications like mouse interuptions effected gameplay or lagg out of ordinary just randomly freezes with the sound of the game annoyingly still buzzing and my monitors have a mixture of whatever textures i had on the screen.....
