Yet another headache with this board...
I seem to get a random HARD freeze about once every few weeks, doing non-intensive tasks such as browsing on the Internet or watching YouTube videos. I hammer this thing with 3D games all the time, but it always seems to freeze up doing very simple tasks.
It is NOT temperature related. While doing these small tasks, the CPU hangs around 30C and the motherboard at 28C. I have an aftermarket cooler.
I have only a mild overclock on the CPU - FX8320
I can run Prime95 with no issues on heat or power, yet the most simple stupid tasks cause this PC to hard freeze occasional.
BIOS is updated. All drivers are updated. I have disabled all hardware acceleration in Chrome -- it seems to happen in Chrome, but that's where I spend most of my time -- this is to exclude any weird GPU-related issues regarding p-States.
At this point, I am incrementally increasing the various voltages in case this is a power issue. I have also changed LLC from Auto to Enabled.
