I recently got a new prebuilt PC, and within a week of redownloading all my files and games from my previous PC, the computer continuously freezes and becomes completely unresponsive when gaming. It happens at random times and seems to differ between games. I have done everything I possibly can to remedy this issue, from scanning and repairing drivers, drives, reseating my GPU and RAM, installing HW monitor to ensure my temps are not skyrocketing and the voltage/wattage is sufficient, going into BIOS to make sure nothing is overclocked and the RAM is set to the correct MHz, running the windows memory diagnostic tool, etc. Everything that has been posted on youtube and other forums, I am almost positive I have tried. Absolutely nothing works and no matter what I do, the freezes keep occurring. The strange thing is when my PC becomes unresponsive, I can still hear my friends continuing to talk in discord but they cannot hear me. I am not sure what else to do about this other than to seek help here or to return the PC and just build another one on my own.

got the same issue since kb5030219.
When my second monitor is disabled the pc random freeze after some usage like youtube.
It freeze like 10 seconds dont take any input, then i can move my mouse 1 secound. Even sound get stuck and when i press to much buttons some strange windows beep sound occur.
The only fix for this is go into control pannel and enable the second monitor. then the promlem is gone.
I've been having the same issue since the start of the month. Streaming? Freeze. Gaming? Freeze. Typing a message in Discord? Freeze. And it's been super inconsistent too. Every since the latest update, I also have it where my computer stutters a bit and acts like it's about to freeze but doesn't. Absolutely hate this.
I use Teams a good bit and this week turned off the "New Teams" and have found my issue with freezing has almost stopped. Not positive the New Teams was the problem but have now gone just over 24 hrs with no freeze ups.
Exactly, same thing for me.
I am having the same issue since the start of this month or, since the last update. That's when the problems started with random freezes. I have tried a fresh re-install but it doesn't matter. My PC randomly freezes anyway. Doesn't matter if I'm gaming, or just using the browser.
Any help would be appreciated!
