Hi all,
I built my pc around 2 years ago, and it’s been fairly stable (I always randomly had the odd hard freeze of the whole system, but this would seem to fix itself for months on end).
Recently I’ve been playing a lot of valorant, and for some reason the game will hard freeze for maybe 2-3 seconds, this is then followed by discord losing the ability to pick up my voice activation, and me not being able to hear anyone in discord (I can see their light coming up, but I can’t hear anything).
This is then followed by either my PC completely freezing and rebooting itself, or me having to restart my self as discord will just randomly stop working.
It has happened on the odd occasion where I’ll close valorant, and about 3-4 minutes later I’ll wonder why I can’t hear anyone in discord, and it’s done the same thing as above. This happened when the game is closed and I’m say just browsing the web.
I’ve done a full PC format.
Memory test with mem86
Changed my headset from wireless to wired
Updated bios to latest version
Updated all drivers including chipset
I’m at a bit of a loss but it’s starting to get on my nerves!!
The only change I’ve done to the PC is fit an NVME SSD around 6 months ago.
Specs:
AMD 2600
Corsair 16gb ram 3000mhz
1660ti
1 tb SSD
Gigabyte B450 aorus pro mobo
Gigabyte 700w PSU
Any ideas before I throw it out of the window?
