I build my own [Windows 10] PC about 2 months ago, i didn't have any problems the first month but i recently have had a lot of freezes. When it freezes i can't do anything, the only way to get out of it is to hard restart. I have tried almost everything i could find like updating the drivers, resetting virtual memory, running a disk check, checked my system files, and so on. I also checked for any faulty hard ware and i couldn't find any. Nothing worked, it doesn't matter what i'm doing it will crash randomly and i have no idea why.

[EDIT] I forget to say that i have had a lot more freezes since i bought a second monitor

You check the ram by removing one stick at a time and see if your problem is solved. If the freezes stop you have found what is causing it.

When it comes to diagnose pc problems the essential thing is to first find out if a problem is related to hardware or software. Then if it's hardware you have to remove every component until you find the problem. Eliminate what could be OK during the process.

Now ram works with video graphics so I would start by removing one stick at the time to see if my problem would identify it self.

Check your ram one by one. Your problem sounds similar to one I had when I build my last pc. Ram trouble can cause sudden freezes or lack of boot up or other weird things you can't thing with software analyzing tools
