Computer Hardware diagnostics or troubleshooting
- Nov 8, 2012 11:54 pm GMT
Hey guys, I recently built a new computer for my gaming needs, everything worked out perfectly up until these passed few weeks, where my computer has been randomly crashing (software crashing, also BSoD). I was wondering if there was anyway to identify the problem that might be causing this issue, maybe a diagnostic of troubleshooting of some sort.
I'm willing to provide anymore information if needed, but thanks for the help.

My rig: Intel i5 2500k | 8GB 2000Mhz RAM | 2x 120GB SSD in RAID 0 | AMD HD 6970 2GB | Asus P8Z68-V LX

[QUOTE="darksusperia"]BSoD tells you the problem. Whats the stop code?[/QUOTE] Honestly I don't know what the stop code is, it's random like sometimes it's while I'm on my desktop doing nothing, or while playing a game of league or battlefield 3.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.
