Random PC freeze

[Errichamonda]

Hi everyone, I have this problem since a week. My PC starts freezing with no reasons. It freeze when I click on taskbar, open file explorer or even right click on desktop. I never had this probelm before but now I can't make it stop. I've already fresh install windows 10 3 times (with different ISOs download, all from mediacreationtools), cleared the bios setting of mobo, removed 1 graphic card doesn't seems to help.

 

Anybody have any suggestion?

 

My pc:

ASUS Maximus V Gene

3570K 4.8 GHz (already tried stock but nothing)

g.skill ripjaws x 8GB

Corsair H100i

2x ASUS 280X DCU2

Corsair AX 760

Kingston HyperX 3K

First, run an admin command prompt, and use the command: sfc/ scannow

I know you already fresh installed, but sometimes the hardware just fucks up the windows installation, and this should tell you if it's corrupted or not.

 

Assuming that windows isn't the issue, I'd minimize the system to it's minimum components: no dedicated GPU, 1 stick of RAM (try all slots), the CPU, mobo, PSU, and disk with the OS on it. If that has no issues, then keep adding components one at a time until you find the issue. 

 

Assuming that doesn't work, if you have any spare parts, try swapping those in (again one at a time) for your current ones to try and see if one of them is defective.

 

If issues arise with the bare essentials, and you have no spare parts, here are some ideas: clear CMOS, there may be some issues in the bios configs. always worth a try, really. What may bear more fruit, however, is cleaning the CPU socket. If there's something messing with one of the connections, unpredictable crashes often ensue. There are plenty of tutorials on how to remove things from a CPU socket if that's the case for you. I'd also take the time to dust out the PC, I've seen dust actually cause hardware issues because it was conductive and bridging contacts before. 

 

If none of this works, then that's more thinking and I'm tired... So let's try this first.
