Win 10,PC freeze sounds gone

[baq]

Hi everyone for the love of GOD i can't even figure out what's causing my PC to have those stuttering, it happens from time to time that now it occurs almost daily.... 

my build is

8700k - evo 212 cooler

ASUS z370-f

8*2 gb ddr4 3000 g.skill tridentz  (RGB)

GTX1070TI ROG

m.2 nvme samsung

ssd

3 HDDs

Thermaltake toughpower grand series 650w (RGB)

2 fans and led strip

2 monitors

 

Here is what happens, the whole pc freezes for a sec or 2 then resumes back, it shows that the sound cables disconnected and connected again(windows 10 notifications front audio speaker), sometimes the sound works sometimes i have to disable the audio driver(Realtek) from device manager and re-enable it and restart to work.

 

temps are always fine especially in cold weather so it shouldn't be a problem

 

I thought it was from the ram but I ran Memtest and had 2 successful runs with no errors. it shouldn't be the hard drive since the OS is on the M.2 nvme.

 

I thought maybe it's the PSU, I searched online but no mentions of same incidents.

Maybe it's from chrome while I have like 40 tabs, but I have the great suspender tab, it basically put it in suspended mode and you have to reload the tab again when you want to browse it, it shouldn't be a problem since the build is good.

 

weirdly i hear the HDDs spin when that happes.

 

ironically this never happened in my old build 3770k.

 

any ideas would be appreciated :(

 

sorry for the long post

Try a restore point

i dont think it would solve it, id rather have fresh install, it seems a hardware thing, my RAM usage is usually under 50% weird.

Hi, I had something pretty similar happening to me (buzzing sounds for a couple of seconds, full system freeze for a couple of seconds, audio disconnect/reconnect notices...).

I have 1 SSD + 2HDDs in my setup.

 

I smashed the Gremlin () by disabling an option putting an HDD to sleep by default after 20min of inactivity.

I switched it to "never".

 

Perhaps that could also work for you.

I'm glad i could help

Reading your troubleshoot, I could clearly see I went through the exact same trouble myself.

 

I also thought "how could this be the solution, that sounds sort of far fetched ?"

A good question.

For someone with more knowledge to answer.
