I experience brief freezes after prolonged PC usage (often starting around 2 hours). The screen freezes temporarily to zero frames before returning to normal. This occurs more often with extended sessions and is resolved quickly after a restart. It happens across various scenarios, from intense gaming to near-idle states in Windows. The issue has persisted since last year despite updating drivers, the operating system, games, and BIOS. I’ve also reinstalled Windows completely this year but the problem remains. My system specs: Ryzen R7 3700X, MSI B450, TOMAHAWK MAX Radeon RX 5700 XT, 2x8GB RAM, Windows 10 Home 64-bit, 650W PSU. I’m unsure where to investigate further—please suggest tests or data collection if possible.

It could be a memory leak or issue that develops gradually, using up RAM over several hours. Consider removing one stick and testing with 8GB of RAM. Run each stick separately to determine if performance changes.

I tested both options and switched between two slots, but the result remained the same.
