So my PC just started to seemingly randomly crash starting last night. Was just browsing the internet, looking at nucleotide structures for getting caught up for an internship, when it suddenly crashed. CPU was hovering around 32 degrees C, GPU1 around 42, and GPU2 around 30, so I am near certain it isn't a thermal issue with those components. No bluescreen, just the audio cutting out and monitors losing signal, so I wouldn't think it is a problem with my boot drive or windows. Both of my monitors lose signal, so I don't think it is a problem with the monitors. Additionally, all the lights in my computer remain on and fans keep spinning, so I have reason to believe it isn't a power draw issue. All drivers are up to date.
Built the computer in September and OC'd the RAM then, so I don't think the OC is the issue. Like I said, it's seemingly random when the signal gets lost. Could be a minute after the PC is turned on while it is still on the desktop. Could be an hour, while watching a video. Additionally, I have a 4xUSB 3.0 devices plugged in, 2xUSB 2.0 devices, 2 Noctua NF-F12 industrialPPC-3000 PWM on the radiator (push-pull), 2xNF-A14 industrialPPC-3000 PWM plugged into the mobo, and 2 Corsair ML140 PRO LED Red 140mm PWM plugged into the mobo. I have checked, and crossfire is enabled. There was a power outage yesterday, but everything is plugged into a surge protector, so I'm not certain, but that should have prevented any issues due to the power outage.
