Hello, in November of 2018 I built a new system (exception being all of the storage devices, GPU and PSU). I had a habit of leaving my PC on at all times, but going to use the PC in the morning revealed that the PC had frozen, some time during the night. I decided that this wasn't too big of a problem, and just turned the PC off when I went to bed, or left or whatever. This worked fine, until recently, where the PC would freeze at random intervals. Sometimes it would take a couple of minutes, sometimes half an hour, sometimes an hour or a couple, and sometimes >5 hours. The specs are as follow:
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600 (Stock)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 970 Strix (Stock)
Mobo: ASRock AB350M Pro4
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport AT (1x 8GB stick, 2666MHz)
SSD: Kingston SSDNow A400 (<1 year old)
HDDs: 2x WD Greens (>9 years old)
PSU: Corsair VS550 (~2 years old)
I've tried everything I can think of, running memtest86, flashed newest version of bios, underclocked ram, tried different PSU, tried GPU in different PC, uninstalled drivers properly and updated with new ones, swapped memory slots. The only thing that I haven't tried is formatting and installing windows, but I fail to see how that would help.
