Hey everyone, so my PC is freezing for 2 seconds and then crashes with some weird sound loops. I don't get any BSOD's or error massages. This happens after 4 hours of gaming, then after the crash if I go to chrome it crashes after 10 minutes. Temps were checked, also memtest86 with 3 tests and I recently changed my PSU to a new one. after I changed, the PC wouldn't crash for 2 months, and now its back. It started 3 months after I got my new GPU. back then the PC almost crash Instantly after 2 minutes of starting it. So I suspected the GPU, and plugged the video cable to the motherboard. Then it stopped crashing, and I though that this is my GPU causing this. I sent the GPU to the lab they tested it and said that its all fine. You guys have any ideas of what can it be? because I know for sure this is a hardware issue

 

Specs:

 

Core i7-4790 3.6Ghz

16GB RAM ddr3 1600Mhz

GTX 1060 6GB

2x1tb HDD

corsair cx550

are you on the latest nvidia drivers? sounds like the gpu is causing some instability. have you applied any overclocks to it? try to completely uninstall the drivers using DDU and re-install them

Yes, I am downloading the latest nvidia drivers and I did preformed a DDU. and no nothing is overclocked.

I'll try. can you describe what was your issue?

it wasnt me it was my friend.

after he got his new pc i came over to install his os and check if everything is ok.

i installed windows and it was crashing after 10 minutes no matter what. chrome, csgo or just idling - it was crashing.

so i reinstalled windows and it fixed everything
