New PC Keeps Freezeing

Wafflezeit

I just did a new PC build with a Ryzen 2600, ASUS ROG Strix-F X470, 16GB GSkill Trident Z RGB RAM, and a Gigabyte GTX 1080 Windforce and it will randomly freeze.  I have already replaced the mobo and ram as well as used multiple different drives to do a clean install of windows on.  Any suggestions to correct this would be greatly appreciated.

I updated all the drivers directly from manufacturers and AMD's websites

Is your RAM on your motherboards supported list

It's probably worth mentioning that the mobo I replaced was a Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 7 x470

The PSU is an EVGA Supernova G2 850 watt.  I can play games and stress the cpu with no issues and is being cooled with a corsair h100i v2 with 3 additional case fans

I have not yet tested with another gpu.  How would I tell if its the CPU or GPU?

No errors, just everything locks up.  Only happened under load one time.  It typically happens when idle.

To me that sounds like a Graphics Card issue. But, it could be anything

I have used 2 different mobos and 2 different ram kits so theoretically it should be narrowed down to either one of those.  Ill try a replacement gpu and see what happens

Just got the replacement GPU in and it still happened.  The motherboard suite is not yet installed.  It first started during windows installation.  Any other suggestions?  It just seems odd that it's always fine under load and only freezes while idle.

If the only thing you haven't tried replacing is the CPU, then it's the logical conclusion as to the culprit.

 

Have you bee using the same peripherals the whole time?
