Hi,
my gaming PC suffers from random crashes. Usually screen freezes with the occasional BSOD mixed in. Can be on games, but it also (rarely) happens in desktop mode. I have sent the PC in for repair twice, but support couldn't not reproduce the error so I am on my own, and all the diagnostics show no error. So here's my question: Which part would you change first?
Additional info:
ASUS H170I+ D3
i7-6700
EVGA GTX 1080
16GB RAM
Corsair CS650M
RAM is fine according to memtest
temperatures are not an issue before the crash, according to logging software
often after crash and reboot, screen stays black while PC seems to boot normally; it may work again after a few tries or I may have to switch to onboard GPU; graphics card shows no error even while not working and will always work again after a couple of hours
Thanks for your input!
