I recently built a new computer to replace my old one and it has been freezing, then going black, then restarting, all completely randomly. It could be minutes after booting or hours into gaming. Before restarting I can still hear audio from whatever I am doing, up until the screen goes black.
Here are the specs of my new build:
Things I've tried to fix it:
Old build in case it's any help (maybe driver issues?)
Here are the specs of my new build:
- i9 9900KF, Noctua NH U9S
- GIGABYTE RTX 2070

- 32GB TridentZ 3600MHz DDR4

Things I've tried to fix it:
- New hard drives (the M.2s replaced my old mechanical HDD after finishing the build).
- Different GPU
- Moving ram to new slots
- New power strip to plug PC into
- Forcing it to happen with Cinebench R20 and Unigine Heaven (did not work)
- MicroCenter Diagnostics, where they fixed my CPU wiring and said it passed all their diagnostics
- Windows updates/repairs
Old build in case it's any help (maybe driver issues?)
- MSI Z97 GAMING 5

- MSI GTX 970
