[SOLVED] Freezing

[Impala640]

Hi, I pretty recently built a computer and I commonly experience freezing on games like Fortnite and GTA V, my computer will also stop responding when doing simple tasks out of the blue. I have some theories as to what part it is and I've broken it down to two parts, it's either the Power supply or the motherboard. I have the Asus m5a78l-m /USB 3 and for the PSU, I have an

Astrape M1-650W.

The problem is from the MB, because the AMD 760 chipset MB is not suitable for fx 8 series cpu. The fx 6 cpu will be fine with the 760 chipset. You can try either way to solve the problem. If you still have the same problem, then you should upgrade the whole PC.

1. Buy the VRM heatsink to cool the VRM section. Watch the youtube.

2. Go into the BIOS to disable few of cores, because the games will not use more 4 or 6 cores for now.

And from one review your PSU is fine. Review https://www.funkykit.com/reviews/power-supplies/gamdias-astrape-p1-650g-power-supply-review/

Can I just upgrade my motherboard CPU ram and PSU?

Yes, if you want to upgrade, and you can reuse the PSU, but it is up to you.

k, cause some people said it was the PSU cause when my game freezes my PSU makes a beeeep sound. I'm gonna buy an 850W 80 PLUS Gold in case I get an RX-590
