I've been having an issue for a few months now where my computer will just randomly freeze during any sort of usage. Gaming, internet browsing, video watching... this makes me feel like it couldn't be the GPU but what else would cause everything to freeze?
When the freeze occurs I can still move my mouse and click on things. Typically this just makes the app go white like it's not responding. Audio still works, if I'm watching a video or playing a game I still hear the audio and can oddly still talk to people (in and out) through a game/discord via push to talk. The freeze stays for 1-2 minutes then everything resumes as nothing happened. My GPU temps don't go much beyond 75C at these times but I can't help but think the GPU is the problem. This is driving me absolutely crazy. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've made sure to update every driver I can and windows is also up to date..
System Specs:
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64bit ver 1709
Mobo: ASRock 990FX Extreme6
GPU: XFX Radeon r9 290 4GB
CPU: AMD FX-8350 Black 4.0GHz
PSU: Antec TruePower TP-750C
RAM: Ripjaw 4GB x2
SSD: PNY XLR8 480GB
Thanks in advance!
