Random complete system freezes.. Frustrating.
My system will randomly freeze and is completely unresponsive to any keyboard/mouse input. I have to either shut down the machine or hit the reset button.
Strangely, this never happens while gaming. I can game for hours and hours and have zero problems. The only time I get freezes are when my system is using low resources. Just browsing the web and such. Also strange is that it is very random. Sometimes I can have it happen many times one day, and other days it never happens once with significant web browsing and stuff.
It also only happens when I'm doing some sort of action.. For example clicking a button on a website, loading a youtube video, etc. It will never happen while completely IDLE.
I have formatted my system completely several times, all drivers up to date, BIOS flashed to latest, etc. I have been dealing with this problem for months and am coming here for help! At first I was thinking either memory or video card problem, but considering they do not fail stress tests and gaming is flawless, I can't understand how they would be the issue?
My CPU is overclocked, video cards are stock. I have run memtest, prime95, furmark and all have run without any system freezing, blue screens, etc.
I have attached my minidumps/perfmon/xml file in a .zip to this post.
