Hi,
I'm having an issue regarding my Optiplex 390 sff freezing at random times during any use. The freezing does happen at different times, and there have been a few days with it working perfectly fine with light (browsing) to mid (Cad/some games) usage. More demanding games increases the frequency of it freezing. The screen would show what was last on. I've tried using various diagnostics programs including dells own one but was perfectly fine every time. When it does freeze, I have to shut it down every time, then boot it usually with no problem message. The fans keep running, including the psu one.
The gpu in the system is a gt 1030 which is nearly a year old, I've updated the drivers to the latest to see if that helped. I also installed a new ssd recently to see if it's a hard drive issue, but the same problem occurs, less frequently though. Temperatures for the cpu and gpu are both average.
I was wondering if the psu could be an issue, a faulty motherboard or os. Any suggestions would be helpful, thanks.
