I'm no noob, but I'm stumped on this one. specs in sig, brand new components.
Problem:
random hard locks (screen and image freeze, have to force power off) at random intervals.
attempted fixes:
rails are good, oc is stable in both prime, memtest and games (though it happens at stock/below stock), hard drives passed SeaTools tests, new video drivers installed (it happens sometimes when I'm watching a movie), and I ever ran a virus scan for good measure.
I'm completely stumped here. I remember having a similar problem a LONG time ago, and it turned out to be the power supply, but my voltage rails are just fine, and my Kill-a-watt is reporting load power draw thats well below its rated 420w (and besides it freezes at idle/low load just as often as full load)
