First off, Im very new to the forums and building so please let me know if i messed up somewhere.

I build this about a month and a half ago, every since day one ive had an issue with it randomly have this audio glitch where it sounds distorted almost robotic and then a few seconds to a few minutes later the computer starts slowing down quite a bit. Lots of mouse lag and just general lag/slowing of the computer. After restarting the computer, its fine. This issue happens some what infrequently maybe once every two or three days. It seems to be more common when I am playing a game and watching a youtube video at the same time (dual monitors). Once when it was messing up I noticed that the page file usage was maxed out, but then ive checked it at least 2 other times and it wasnt super high.

I have tired taking out and re inserting the RAM and that didnt seem to help. Im at a loss as to what to do or where to start to researching how to fix this. Ive done a bit of research but havent found anything that worked or seemed like it was my same issue. So I was wondering if anyone would have any suggestion on places to start researching/fixing this issue. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated!

Do a mem test, if you dont get any error do a stress test (100% load) and see what happens, if the computer slows down even after the stress test this might be a motherboard issue.
