This was the first forum that popped into my mind when seeking assistance. I'm not sure if I'm in the right community, though. When I'm not gaming—like during streams or YouTube—I notice my PC slows down, sometimes freezing completely. One screen goes black while the other just freezes. I've tried running without any CPU or RAM overclocking, but it still crashes. My AMD drivers seem to fail after a specific game, such as Elder Scrolls Online and League of Legends, not in others. It feels like the drivers have crashed and restarted. I might have missed something important, but that's okay. Here are my specs:

- RAM: 4 x 4 GB
- CPU: AMD FX 4100 @ 4 GHz
- GPU: Asus Strix R9 380 4 GB
- GPU2: GT 740 2 GB
- PSU: Xilence 600W (not great)

Appreciate any help!

It's usually not the CPU or RAM that causes the blue screen, freeze, or crash. The issue often lies with the GPU or PSU. Take a look at those.

I’ve run the GPU multiple times without any issues, but I’m not sure how to inspect the PSU. It seems like you might need another unit.
