>>1550897it really shouldn't cause straight up freezing for a pc of those specs no. something else is up.
personally, i had a problem with freezing recently on this build i'm selling. i checked every possibility, ram, cpu, hard drive, motherboard, everything. no matter what i did, the thing would just chug and then randomly freeze, and the disk usage was always hitting 100% for some odd reason. i was sure it was the ram but i tried so many different sets to no avail.
turns out it was the power supply. apparently having a bad psu can cause some pretty fucking weird symptoms that seem like other components failing, i guess bcuz they're not getting clean power.
