    System freezing


    Hi guys,

    I've got a desktop of around 5 years old that is now freezing for no apparent reason. It's recently been upgraded with a new 1TB SSD. At first I thought maybe the SSD was the issue however after a fresh install of Windows 10 the problem still is happening.

    I have the SSD in another system now and it's working fine so I presume it's another item that's causing the issue. My first though it that it's got to be the motherboard. Window logs are clean. Anything I should try before swapping out the mobo? Could it be RAM?

    :)
