Hello I need some advice/help with a problem i am having with my pc. my pc turns on goes to windows but after a few mins freezes . but odd thing is num,scroll,caps locks working. the same also happened in safe. or in any game or in just desktop idle.
it also happened in bios once . i have reinstalled the gpu and rams to no effect. tried all ram slots. i like to point out the few thing that has happend before this started happening . after the pc started freezing i found out my cpu fan broke so changed it after i changed this still happened, after that i found a strange thing normally my rams were on the a2b2 slots which are recommended by the board msi b450 pro carbon but in bios it was showing on 8 gb not but in desk top it was showing 16 on cpuz so i placed the rams in the other two slots now bios also shows 16gb but the main problem is there it freezes after few mins. num,scroll,capslock working.

cpu fan - was cm h410r now amd standard cooler

Based on what you are saying, I suspect damage to the CPU due to heat.

When you say "you noticed the CPU fan broke", what do you mean? IE it wasn't spinning, a blade broke off, what?
How long do you think it was running with the broken cooler?

Typically, if the PC detects the fan isn't running it will throw a message before POST letting you know. Did you see this?
