Issue: Since November, I've been experiencing random system freezes during gaming or even while browsing. I’ve tried troubleshooting the issue extensively, but the problem persists.
Steps Taken So Far:
CPU Testing: Ran Prime95 – no issues detected.
Memory Testing: Used MemTest86 – no errors found.
Stress Testing: Ran OCCT – all tests passed without issues.
Windows Reinstallation: Reinstalled Windows 5 days ago – problem still occurs.
SAM : Disabled SAM last week, which significantly reduced the frequency of freezes (almost none in the last 5 days), but the system froze again today while watching CES.
So basically, this is my last cry for help, I guess. After this, I’ll just have to suffer through it and wait for an update in a few months. If the issue persists, I’ll only have two suspects left after upgrade to am5: the GPU and the PSU.
