    I don't get any blue screen ...... Just hard lock up freeze ... no mouse or keyboard reaction ... I have then to reset or hold power button.

    It will only be creating .dmp files if there is a blue screen.

    Well ... how can I know wth is going wrong with my machine then ???
    On evga forums they saying this motherboard could be the issue ( evga 790i ultra sli ) cause it's very capricious about the ram you run it with but beside that I changed the video card already ( had nvidia 9800 and now ati 4850 so can't be that ) which would leave me with only cpu or hdd ( checked with western digital tools and nothing wrong with my raptor 300 gbs ) or eventually faulty motherboard ... if it was hardware caused.
    Temps never go over 60 celsius on any part so I'd say can't be overheating either.

    I would test all of your hardware and make sure all of them are not faulty.

    RAM: RAM - Test with Memtest86+
    - Run at least 7 passes (this will take 6-8 hours)
    - Do this overnight
    - Burn .iso to CD/DVD using a CD burning program (Imgburn is recommended)
    - Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot. Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots.

    CPU: https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...t-prime95.html
    - Run Prime95, use the tourture test, Blend. This will test CPU and RAM.

    HDD: | Seagate

    I did try memtest a long while ago and let it run for 5 hours + no error ... One thing though if I remember right it had frozen during one of them memtest .... No error on the error count though.
    I did prime95 and intelburn to test my cpu and never had any error there either.
    Hdd tested with western digital ( tried seagate thing but wouldn't show my hdd on there for some reason ) and no error showed either.
    I don't have any other motherboard handy to test though

    Do the memtest and give at least 7 passes.

    Are you overclocking anything? Can you check your computer for a while if it is overheating? And can you blow out the dust in the heatsink?

    Maybe take some photos inside your computer?

    I'm 100% positive it's not overheating ...
    Using everest ultimate and NOT ONE temperature over 60 celsius ever ... Even while using 100% cpu and stuff with stress tests / gaming or what not.
    ( cpu max at 59 celsius , both cores , spp max around 53 celsius , mcp max around 58 / 59 celsius , gpu ( depending on it being displayIO / memIO or shader ) range from 48 celsius to 56 celsius and hdd max around 27 celsius so ....
    But yeah I repeat my question ... Could freeze during a memtest just be ram's fault or more likely not hardware ??? Or maybe no way to figure it out ???
    I have bought this comp to a friend who shipped it over seas ... And it hasn't worked for more than 9 days straight without a freeze ever ... I could have shipped it back but it cost me more in shipping than it actual cost me buying it off him so I kept it and trying to figure out what's wrong with it.
