Viruses are known to consume a large amount of resources, try running a scan.

AVG, CCleaner, Malwarebytes

What all programs are actively running? Try to monitor from the time you turn the PC on until it's full. You can see what app uses the most memory.

[Apple117]

All programs take up roughly the exact memory from start (excluding malware trackers that do their scans ) but the % of memory usage keeps rising until the freeze.

I've also run the windows memory checker if you were wondering, and it comes up with no problems.
-brand new motherboard
-brand new CPU
-brand new RAM

But on what particular program?

no active programs, I can leave computer on straight from boot and memory will rise with time

Hmm, can you try to reinstall Windows? Or try safe mode?

[Apple117]

Ok. Make sure you backup all your data first. Good luck, let me know how it goes!

Another note is that I've been trying gaming, and have had a ludicrous amount of studdering with my ram consistently maxing out                                                                         The motherboard had trouble accepting the RAM and my computer guy notes that he had a lot of trouble flashing the Bios onto the motherboard.

unless you really need to there's no real reason to flash bios. have you try different ram or mobo?
