So I'm pretty familiar with computers and I've tried several things that I'll list below, but basically it freezes sometimes when I walk away and its idling. Not often, but maybe once a week or so. I've tried the key combo to refresh my graphics driver (win+control+shift+b) which doesn't help. I think it may be related to chrome/brave. I'm not sure, but in several instances I've had both closed and it didn't freeze, but it doesn't freeze with it open often so it might not be that. I am using the portable version of brave if that makes a difference, but I rarely use it. This has been happening for a several months and it also could be related to my graphics card swap (put in a Nvidia 2060), but I don't have any issues with it otherwise so I'm not sure.
1) Tested RAM with the windows mem diag
2) Tested all hard drives/SSDs with Seagate Seatools and Crystal Disk Info
3) Updated graphics card drivers
4) Updated BIOS and motherboard/processor drivers
5) Chrome - I've had graphics acceleration on and off
6) Stress tested hardware
7) sfc /scannow - it fixed some corrupt Windows files
8) Checked Windows logs and the only thing it really shows is an improper shutdown that I've had to do each time
Hardware:
AMD Ryzen 3900x
32GB RAM
1TB boot SSD + a few mechanical drives + 500GB SSD
650W Power Supply
Windows 10 Pro
Any ideas on what it could be? Any other tests I should try?
