I've noticed some unusual behavior while gaming. The system freezes, the mouse continues moving, and audio from Discord plays even though you can't hear it. I'm forced to restart everything by pressing the reset button because nothing seems to function properly. There are reports online about a Windows update causing these issues, so I'm trying to rule that out. I've also started overclocking the GPU, but it worked before I began. My current settings are around 90 on the CPU and 350 Hz on memory, which causes crashes at about 120 and 600 Hz. The clock speed is roughly 2050 Hz. On Saturday I played for all day, did an OC, and it didn't crash until the next day. It happens with other games too. It makes me wonder if this is related to the GPU or the operating system.
