Hello,
It started in december, random hangs occured while using my pc, they can happen when I watch people streaming, when im playing a game or when i do both at the same time. The hangs happens at random time and sometimes i dont have any for few days, other times i can have 3 during the same day.
I dont get any BSOD, both of my monitors just froze, no more sound, cant move my mouse, both my mouse and my keyboard lights are off. All my drivers are up to date, my windows is up to date. I dont understand what is causing the problem, I have no DMP files because i have no BSOD and my event log only shows kernel power in critical error, which I understand since I had to hard restart the pc using the power button after the pc just froze.
With a friend I already scan my pc for virus/malware,checked if my windows had corrupted/broken files, updated all my current drivers and resocketed my ram.
I had one BSOD "clock_watchdog_timeout" my cpu was overclocked using Linus video, so I tried to remove the overclock and put the default clock and voltage, 2 hours after I had another freeze.
I'm using msi afterburner to monitor the temp and the use of my gpu, cpu and the usage of my RAM, even when the pc freeze the numbers are fine. My only concern is i have 2x8GB ddr4 RAM windows sees 16GB but msi afterburner show me a maximum of 8192, dont know if its only a display or if the program tells me that onlt 8GB can be use.
Build:
Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Asus Z170 Pro Gaming (BIOS 1105 lastest )
i7-6700k (previously overlocked to 4.5, back to stock settings)
Asus gtx 970
Corsair 2x8GB 2400Mhz
Corsair AX860I 860W
Corsair H100i
Samsung 850 EVO Series 250GB
Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200RPM SATA3 64MB
P.S. I built the pc myself back in september, i had no freeze or BSOD before december.
