Games not responding
All my games such as CS:GO, Minecraft, Kingdom Come and others stop working. They freeze completely. The game will freeze repeatedly, needing to be closed using Task Manager. This cycle repeats about three times before the freezing stops. The freezing happens unexpectedly, anytime during gameplay.
I performed two virus scans using Malwarebytes and checked temperatures under full load. This situation has been ongoing for several months. I replaced my power supply and moved the boot drive to an SSD. All components are new except the GPU, which I received from a relative.
PC specifications:
Rosewill micro ATX case
Aorus B450M motherboard
NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti
16GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance 2400MHz
500GB SSD + 500GB HDD
AMD Ryzen 5 2600X with stock cooler
EVGA 600W Bronze rated PSU
I don't know your mobile device, does it have an onboard graphics card? If yes, then connect your monitor cable into the socket to check if the 1050 is faulty. Use dxdiag to check for any faults. Also, look in the reliability monitor to see if it logs the same errors, which could help identify the issue. Just because your components are new doesn't mean they can't be faulty—run a memory diagnosis in the search box to perform a memory test. If it reports faulty RAM, you won't know which stick is affected, so you'll need to run the test one stick at a time. Another method to test the graphics card is to choose a game that will crash and set everything to low to see if it still crashes.
