Hey, I see your PC is having issues with freezing and lagging during games. No fixes found yet—hope someone can assist. This problem occurs with every game you play; sometimes it runs for a few hours but other times the CPU won’t start. You have a powerful setup: Intel Core i7-9700k, RTX 3060 Ti, decent RAM, and a solid PSU.

Hey everyone! Ready to check how your system holds up? Consider doing a CPU stress test to see if it freezes or crashes. Running memtest86 can help verify your RAM is in good shape. If you're boosting performance beyond normal settings, like using XMP, let me know!

I'm downloading a CPU stress tester now, and only using overclocking with XMP works, but the PC freezes even without it.

Have you explored prime95? It increases CPU and RAM usage.

I installed Windows 11 and the problem has disappeared, which is unexpected but good news. Thanks for the assistance!

Have you experimented with changing your Windows power plan to "high performance"? It seems your device froze once you did so.
