Hi, I recently finished my new Ryzen 7 3700x build and I seem to be having a problem I cant put a pin on. Every once and awhile my computer will "lag out" sometimes crashing but most of the time when it happens it just runs very slow. The only fix to this problem is to turn off power to the power supply... Given I know this is awful for the computer I would like to find a more reasonable fix. When I restart or shut down the computer through windows It is just as slow on start up. I do not have any bloat ware or viruses on the computer (fresh windows install). Lastly while it is in this state of seemly out of memory there are no viable problems with thermals or any problems in the performance tab. The problem seems to happen at random and I am lost for ideas. Thanks guys!
The build:
Ryzen 7 3700x
Asus prime x470
corsair lpx 16 gb 3133mhz
Nvida 2070 super
Sabrent rocket 1tb
128 kingston ssd (boot drive for now)
1tb seagate drive
750W power supply
UPDATE: After trying all of yours guys suggestions that problem has morphed slightly. It now slows down from 15-30 seconds then the screen refreshes and it goes back to normal????
List of changes made today
-Re seated CPU
-New thermal paste
-Re seated ram
-Changed CPU fan curves to promote cooling
