Hello everyone, lately I've been having a problem, I can have a game open for hours without an issue, but when I close it and I'm just browsing the web, my computer freezes completely, sometimes it restarts by itself sometimes i have to do it manually, restarting makes it freeze at the windows logo sometimes or at the login screen, and i get into a loop of lockups and freezes at startup: it has gotten worse these last two days by freezing without opening any game sometimes, but it still happens constantly every time i exit one. I haven't had this computer that much time, i bought the psu, gpu and cpu from a second hand on July and i just started having this problem.
Things I've tried, that i can remember: Reinstalling windows, checked hdd stability, checked all drivers were up to date, Checked for high temperatures while playing games, a friend helped me check i had Ram correctly installed.
I tried using the pc without my gpu and it seems to work fine, but as i said earlier, the only reliable way i can replicate the error is by playing a game and then closing it,; I tried unplugging the gpu right after a lockup and then using the integrated one, it seemed to have worked but after a while i got a black screen, so i'm still not 100% sure.
After everything, I'm still at a loss, I don't have access to other computer to test individual parts so.. i have to work with what i have.
i appreciate every help i can get, thanks!
