    Computer locking up with general use / games


    Hi all,

    Hopefully i've posted this in the right area if not please move it if required mods

    Anyways having an currently an issue with this PC i have just recently formatted and reinstalled all my drivers and games after 2-3 days i started getting locks up (Black screen, repeating sound) can come from anywhere along minutes to hours or days gives me no error logs or a BSOD can be within playing games or just general use mostly happens in games since i'm always on them.

    Wondering if anyone knows any way to troubleshoot into this?

    So far i've re-seated the GPU & RAM, cleanly uninstalled AMD drivers in safe mode and reinstalled (also gone different versions same issue), have ran a memtest for 8hrs with no fails, furmark and cpu stress testing all have no issues temp wise

    :)
