i recently bought a computer a computer specs are below.. i have setup everything correctly and yet it just randomly freezes and wont respond to any keyboard or mouse commands.. i am forced to power off with the physical power button each and everytime..

specs
i7 5820k
asrock x99 extreme 3
rosewill valens 80+ gold 600 watt psu
kingston 120gb ssd
1tb seagate 7200 rpm hdd
cooler master nepton 140xl
asus dvdrw
32gb crucial 2400mhz ddr4 ram

this build was made for rendering and i bought a amd firepro w5100 however at the moment i am using a radeon 6850 as display.. can you huys help me trouble shoot this ... i tried memory stress test and cpu stress test and monitor temps and its all normal yet for some reason it still freezes .. i will post any info you need to help
 


it freezes even on desktop at idle .. i tried another gpu because i taught that could also be the cause and it still froze..
and btw i stated that i already tested the ram and cpu. i used memtest 86 and prime95 and they ran for about 10 minutes non stop and the temps were fine and it did not crash or anything.. i even tried lower the ram speed to see if thats the issue and still no good... i took out all the ram sticks except 1 about 1 hour ago and left the computer running and it has not frozen up so im kinda thinking that might be the issue but i cant tell for sure yet.. what you guys think ?
 


ok i set it too run and it took over two hours to finish and it ended with no error whatsoever .. however at the end where it say press esc to exit the keyboard goes dead and wont respond and i have to reset the pc with physical button.... its really frustrating me now because i need it for work purposes .. all the parts are brand new and are placed in the system properly yet its giving me this much pain ... sighs ..
 


yes that what i noticed earlier... i went back in the system and switch around the ram modules earlier and was gaming on it for hours without any freezing but i doubt that it is fixed because it only happens randomly .. the pc is ony like 3 weeks old and at its first boot up it was ok but as soon as i installed the gpu drivers it would not pass the windows 10 logo .. so i reformatted the pc and installed a different card and it passed the logo however now it starts freezing like randomly .. as i stated before everything is brand new .. BTW i forgot to mention other than freezing randomly the computer will freeze as soon as i open Revit Architecture or Auto Cad .. as soon as i open a project the pc freezes guaranteed every single time .. do you guys think i should return all the parts just to be safe and get them all replaced or give it some time to narrow down my results
 



turns out the it was bad ram and bad power supply ... tested them separately and used them individually in other system and they both crashed so i replaced them both and now my system is properly functioning.. i mean what are the odds of both being delivered defective .. oh well thanks anyways guys
