When does it freeze? Any specific areas? Like Youtube?

It freezes at anytime.

I don't have many extensions installed. Only 2 from Kaspersky and 1 from RealPlayer.

 

Check ram timings, also chrome extensions/malware.

 

All my timings are correct in the BIOS, and i'm not having a instability issue i presume.

It only happens when i'm browsing with Google Chrome.

 

Thanks for the attention guys !

I'd try uninstalling Chrome and reinstalling it if you haven't already. I had the same issue recently with Firefox. I had reset it firstly. Nothing. I reinstalled it. Nothing. Eventually, the problem just panned itself out I guess. I'd also restart if you haven't. Also, have you installed any new software lately or changed any kind of hardware?

Nope, nothing new on my computer. It's frustrating because it freezes my computer, and i've to restart everytime it happens.

Weird. I haven't had that issue. I'd just try reinstalling Chrome. Perhaps getting rid of every part of it - including the registry entries using an advanced cleaning program(if the uninstaller doesn't get rid of them)

It might be realplayer plugin that is causing it to freeze. Try disabling it to see if that works. Use CCleaner to remove all the temp files created by chrome to see if that works.
