I recently built a new gaming pc and and have been experiencing random freezes that cause me to have to restart my computer. The computer normally freezes when i am in game. I have already RMAed my psu and gpu and I am still having the same problem.
My build:
CPU: AMD FX9590
GPU: ZOTAC Geforce GTX 970 extreme amp edition
Motherboard: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
RAM: 2x Corsair Vengeance 4gb sticks
PSU: Corsair 600w
CPU Cooler: Corsair H55 Hydro series
Hard-drive: 1tb caviar blue
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Sounds like a temp issue, keep an eye on your temps while doing something like a stress test or gaming. Either that or it could be a serious driver issue. Does it bluescreen when it freezes or bring up an error message the next time you boot?

**update**
Just checking your system, what efficiency is your power supply because if it's a bronze you're running right at the edge of what it can output consistently. Could be you're running out of power which is undervolting your cpu causing it freeze.
