PC keeps freezing randomly.

[Morais13]

Hello guys, it's not my first time posting something in this forum. Actually, last time I posted something in here, I was trying to find a solution to the problem I'm having right now.

This is my pc build:

OS: Windows 10
CPU: AMD FX 8320 3.5GHz 8-Core AM3+
Graphic Cards: ASUS Dual Geforce GTX1060 3GB OC
Motherboard: MSI 970A SLI Krait Edition
Ram: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB DDR3 1600MHz
Storage: Western Digital 1TB SATA III 64MB Blue
Cooler CPU: Cooler Master Hyper 103
Power Supply: Corsiar CX600 80+

Basically, my pc keeps randomly freezing, and when I say freezing I mean video just stop in a frame like... literaly frozen, and the audio just stops there aswell. I had this problem in June of this year, and it was hapening very often but then I though that I have fixed my problem by removing my wireless adapter, but then... the problem came back in November. It's not a big deal at the moment because it's not hapening frequently like it was in June, but I want to fix this problem, or at least see what's wrong, because I want to do an upgrade do a ryzen 5 and I have to sell my CPU, MB and RAM... and of course... I don't want to sell a broken component.

Here is what I already did in the past and this month (December):

- Disabled c-state in BIOS (December);
- Upgraded my GPU (December);
- I did an overclock and then I unclocked my cpu, and the problem was ocurring before and after the overclock (December);
- I re-installed my OS (in the past);
- Cleaned my pc (in the past and this month);
- Updated BIOS (in the past);
- Did a memory check (in the past);
- Tried another HDD (in the past);
- Unistaled my realtek audio drivers (in the past).

Conclusions that I can relate:

- It's not from my GPU and from my HDD


Guys, at this point I realy don't know what to do and even if this have a solution. There is so many threads in this forum and every solution that they have doesn't work for me and btw, it look like every solution for the same problem its not the same for different computers.

EDIT: this problem happens while I'm on desktop and while I'm playing.

Thank you all

Freezes tend to be memory related. That doesn't mean that the ram is bad, just that something in the memory subsystem is not working right. That could be bad(or incompatible) ram, or bad ram slots or even the memory controller in the CPU is going bad. or possibly the VRMs on the motherboard are overheating. Without doing more exhaustive testing, it is a hard problem to pin down.

Ok, so what can I do to see if everything is cool with my memory?

First is to check for compatibility by seeing if the ram is listed in the QVL for your motherboard, or if your motherboard is listed in the Kingston memory finder as being compatible with the memory you have. second is to run Memtest86 for several passes. If memtest86 finds an error, that is one error too many! Next run prime95 in the mode that does the maximum ram testing. If you still haven't found any errors, then it gets tricky as I am not aware of any software that tests strictly the memory controller on your CPU.
