Hello all. My PC has recently started exhibiting some very strange behaviour. I'll do my best to explain. When running any app/game that uses the CPU to any reasonable degree ( say 50-60%+ ) for more than 5 minutes or so, and then the app/game is exited, my PC locks up and requires a hard reset. While the app is running, there are no issues. Temps are always below 55 ( even when the CPU is at 100% ) and the app runs flawlessly. The last time it happened I was playing a game for over 2 hours with no issues. It's only once I exit the app/game and CPU usage drops, the PC locks up. It's very strange.
In my 20+ years of PC gaming, and building my own PCs, I've never come across anything like this before. Does anybody know what could be causing this? Is it likely a hardware or Win10 problem?
Any guidance would be appreciated. Cheers.
