Hey everyone.
I wanted to share that over the past month my computer has been freezing while playing a game, and I often leave YouTube or social media open on another monitor. Usually both screens freeze, but I can still hear the video playing, which is strange. If it’s going to crash, why not just freeze everything? It’s becoming really bothersome now—it usually happens once a day. I think I posted this question a few weeks ago and people were curious about temperature changes during freezing. I’m not sure what’s causing it, but it’s starting to annoy me a lot. I’d really appreciate any advice or tips to fix this.

You may wish to verify your RAM and ensure you have the most recent BIOS update, as well as chipset or GPU drivers.

I changed the BIOS this morning and the Chipset/GPU last night. After 5 hours today I experienced a freeze, so I'm wondering what I should be checking with the RAM.

I performed Memtest last night since I was out, and upon returning I noticed the test had completed with no errors detected.
