Intermittent Freezing Requires Daily Restart
I recently put together a new build and am having an issue where after my computer has been on for more than a day or so, it starts exhibiting persistence input lag/freezing. Basically every 10-15 seconds it locks up for 3-4 seconds. If I start a 3D game in this state its even worse, as it'll render perfectly for a few seconds than lock up for 5-10 seconds, then run fine again for a few seconds, etc. The problem started when I upgraded my video card.
The only solution I have is to restart the computer daily, as using the computer immediately after a restart does not show any problems. I have all hibernate and sleep options disabled for now.
My initial thought was the video card, as running with the motherboard's on-board video does not produce this issue. I returned the card to the seller and they sent me a brand new one, but the issue is exactly the same.
Could this be in inherent problem with the video card or NVidia driver? Any suggestions?
