Hello,
I have an very strange problem with my PC.I have bought the parts and conected everything and the pc was working without any problems for 3 months after 3 months when i switched my case from an old one to CoolerMaster 690 III after 7-10days after the switch it freezed once and i needed to do the hard restart(plugging the power or pressing the power button for 5sec) after the restart it worked normaly again, and again after 7-10days it did the same but this time it did it two times in 1h, it happend again yesterday it drives me crazy. I tried to run only on the SSD for 2-3 days it didnt make the problem then i put back my HDD which i use only to store games and music again nothing for 2-3 days then i reinstalled my windows 7 pro SP1 and after 10 days this happend again. I havent done any overclocks except after the 2nd freeze I used the INTEL XMP to run my ram on 1600MHz and CPU Turbo mode to 4.1GHz

I am suspecting that the motherboard got an problem but i am not sure, because of that i joined here to hear you opinnion...

 

 

Here is my PC Config:

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V LX
CPU: Intel i5 3570K

RAM: 8GB G.SKILL ripjaws ddr3-1600mhz F3-12800CL10S-8GBXL

SSD: Samsung EVO 840 120GB

HDD: WD Black Caviar 500GB SATA3
Graphics: Gainward nVidia 650 1GB

CPU COOLER:Noctua NH-U12P
Case: Coolermaster 690 III
DVD: Asus DRW-2014S1T

PSU: Silverstone 700W 80 cert
 

 

EDIT: This usually happens while browsing, it never happend while playing a game.
