I've got a weird issue that's been going on for a little while:
It seems like most games I play (currently Horizon Zero Dawn), within the first 5-10 minutes, I get 2-3 30 second hangs. Before and after it's runs perfectly; no frame drops, no stutter; butter smooth. I can usually tell the freeze is coming because some or all of the audio starts to cut out. The audio does occasionally cut out after the freezes, but I just pause the game until it comes back (5 seconds or so).
