PC Freezing

[Guest]

I have had my PC for a little while. I currently use a Titan X. When ever I load up a game my PC will freeze and make a buzzing noise at a random point and force me to restart. Suggestions? Thanks.

Then try it on interrogated graphics. if your CPU supports it.

Did you overclock?

 

Also, would you like to breakdown some of your components, the current version of your OS, and maybe any other clues that will help us solve your problem?

Not overclocking the Titan X, my CPU is actually at 3.8 (not 4.1 as my sig says).

I was having some issues like that a while ago and i ended up using sfc /scannow in the admin command prompt to help solve the issues. Please enter sfc /scannow into your command prompt while running it in admin mode and post the output.

Yeah try this, If you can't log-in to windows, smash f8 or f10 while booting up to enter repair tools, select recover pc and select command prompt, then enter the command.

If you have any other GPUs or can borrow try them. Put your CPU back to its stock speeds. If you have another PC you could try the titan in it.

Left it running for a good 2 hours while I was at dinner and it works great! You are a life saver!

Nope. It just does it randomly when I play either CS:GO or The Witcher 3. I ran a stress test for 3 hours and it was fine. It just does it after a random amount of time.

thats really weird. It could be some inherent issue with one of your parts, or possibly the computer crashing while playing the games has caused a corruption that windows wouldnt have looked for during the sfc.

I swear to god... I've had to re-install it so many times even on different drives
