OK.
Please help me with this one.
I got my PC about 2 years ago and I have a problem since then:
My PC randomly starts hanging up and everything stops working. Small things like switching to another program (which is already opened) either takes as long as usual or it takes up to 2 minutes (this means it is extremely random which programs are when effected). When I try to restart my computer it takes up to 5 minutes until this small window appears, which lets me choose, whether to restart or completely shutdown the system. Once I made it into this small window pop-up, I click on restart to restart my computer. And then it may take 5 minutes or more until I'm released from the "restarting" message and my PC shutsdown and then starts again.
Ok this was a mess but I call these random appearances of making my PC hang up "lag attack". Those lag attacks appear random. Completely random.
i.e:
I want to open the file explorer and suddenly it takes my computer 30 seconds or more. After that my browser shows "not responding" and then I try to open the task manager and that takes a few minutes as well, killing my entire taskbar for a few minutes. Then a pop-up appears prompting me to kill the task Microsoft Windows. I wait a few minutes until this prompt disappears. Everything still ceases to work. Programs randomly seem to work fine for a few minutes until they cease to work again. This repeats every 1-2 minutes until I restart my computer.
My browser interupted me 4 times, by not responding, since I started writing this thread.
(Ok sorry for the terrible english skills but I really need help with this one)
What are my PC specs?
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600
RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 2400MHz CL16
GPU: NVidia GeForce RTX 2060
SSD: 2x 500GB Samsung 850 Evo (non-raid)
HDD: 2TB Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM008
(ok my browser interupted me the 5th time by now)
CPU cooler: be quiet! Pure Rock (temperatures are below 75°C in every workload tested thus far)
(6th interuption)
PSU: be quiet! Pure Power 9 700W
Mainboard: ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS
What have I tried to fix this?
-Changed hard drives/SSDs
-Reinstalled Windows 5 times
-Upgraded my GPU from 1050Ti to RTX 2060 (not really with the target to fix this but it's still worth to be mentioned; so that a GPU error can be excluded)
-Updated the BIOS
-Reset BIOS to defaults etc.
-Also tested other RAM but only for 1 day, so I can't tell whether or not the memory is the issue
-Ran built-in Windows memory test. One error was found, but I ran several tests since then and nothing was found since then.
-I also update my GPU driver instantly, once a new one is released.
(7th interuption btw)
-I also completely wiped my GPU driver with DDU 2 times and reinstalled it.
I need to fix this sh*t as fast as possible, because it drives me crazy.
I think the cause is either my mainboard or my RAM.
But I don't get rid of the feeling, that my CPU/Mainboard is kinda incompatible with something from the software side.
(8th interuption)
So ... that's it .. I don't know what to do anymore. I hand the problem over to you guys. Please help xd.
Thanks in advance for making it through this terrible english.
If you have any questions, ask them. I do basically anything to fix this sh*t.
