hi all, while grinding out tasks on Destiny 2 im usually watching youtube on my second monitor and after awhile my computer completely locks up to the point i have to use the reset button on the case to restart it, this is the second time its happened in 2 days, has happened before ages ago when i was playing WoW, kinda annoying for this to happen, any ideas?

 

here is my current setup: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/Rw7WXP

Do you have an overclock on your GPU, CPU or RAM? Overheating?

|| GPU: 2x Vega 64 Strix OC @1762 / 1100 MHz || Memory: 16GB G.Skill Royal RGB 3200 Mhz ||

HDD: Segate Barracuda 3TB || SSD: Samsung 970 Evo 512 GB || PSU: Corsair HX 1200 W || Case: Fractal Design Define R6 Gunmetal || Fans: Corsair HD120 (x4) / BeQuiet Silent Wings 3 (x4) || Monitor: ACER XF27HU ||

Second Monitor: BENQ RL2455HM || Mouse: Logitech G502 Pretus Core || Keyboard: Logitech G810 Orion Spectrum || Headphones: Sennheiser IE80 ||

Hmm PC lock ups are mostly oc results. Maybe you bump the voltage of your CPU up a little bit. Also do a Stress test with prime 95 or aida 64.

i used the msi OC genie to OC the CPU to 4GHz dont know if that program also changed the voltage for it, i just dont get why its only happening to D2 or WoW, ive played metro 2033/last light redux, monster hunter world and other games for a few hours and nothing like this has happened
