my GPU is a GT730 2GB DDR3

you need to try using a different card for a while (or integrated graphics) and see if you have the same issue. make sure geforce driver is up to date, update to latest bios revision, check thermals on the card to make sure it's not overheating, and try using a different display. The nature of the problem is also important, such as, does it freeze while gaming? does it do this randomly with no reason? does it only do it while a certain application is open? ect. please provide more context and try the trouble shooting steps listed.
