PC Freezing + Lag Spikes with i5 + 6870
Hello SevenForums!
Okay, So please dont judge me here. I was lazy, and I didnt know much about computers when I bought my ... prebuild
For the last 3 years it's been fine, not one problem! I upgraded the GPU to a 6870 about 2 years ago. Again, no problems!
However, all of a sudden for the past week i've been having lag spikes whilst playing BF3, and anywhere from 1 - 60 mins, it will completely freeze and require a hard reset.
I've run memtest and windows memory test. No problems.
I've cleaned all my PC and done eveything that i normally would. Im guessing it's heat, but ... when it freezes, it doesnt feel to hot.
I've done temp checks and they're all fine to me too. I've updated my GPU drivers to beta, still froze so i rolled them back. I just dont know what else to do.
Luckily, Im getting a new build (That im actually doing this time! :P) in about a month or so.
Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
Im uploading my system info too for anyone to have a look :)
Thanks
