Okay so first, build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JvqNhy
Case, RAM, PSU, and hard drives: 1 year old
MOBO, GPU, CPU, and CPU Cooler: within a month old.
So everything in existence on this pc has been put together one by one so any blatant DOA issues would have been able to be cherry picked immediately.
My issue is that during gameplay, seemingly only in splinter cell: blacklist, the pc will freeze up at random. when this happens, my screen goes black, my peripherals turn off, but EVERY internal in my pc remains powered, cpu cooler, gpu and all (gpu has LED"s so that's what i'm basing it off of.) now 650W on a 1080ti and an R7 2700x @4.1ghz stable is gonna draw a lot of power and i REALLY want to point fingers at the psu. Before anyone begins thrashing their keyboard trying to explain that it's a bug in the game because it's the only game it's happened in i just don't buy it. No bug shuts down every usb port and cuts off video feed to the monitor. Once i've been able to hold the power button but every other time i've had to turn off the psu and reboot it. Windows doesn't have the faintest clue about the crashes and never warns me or tells me that it's been shut down improperly. I'd love to believe it's temps but everything is ALWAYS below 70c and mostly below 60c. I'd love some troubleshooting that doesn't involve blindly ordering parts but i'll do what i must. thanks again.
