I don't know too much about computers so i thought my best bet right now would be to ask around in this forum. Anyways, i have about a year & a half old gaming pc that i custom built. I had no problems with it ever up until a few days ago where it would completely freeze entirely to where i have to hard reset to be able to use it again. I've tried factory resetting it but it keeps persistenting & I'm assuming it's the hardware but I'm not forsure what exactly it could be that's making it freeze. I'll gladly provide any additional help if needed aswell & i appreciate any help

Could it be an overheating issue? How hot is the computer when its on/ how hot does it get. Not a computer genius just a question :p

Whats your specs? Also what OS are you running? I've had alot of problems with windows 10 on my PC if you have it maybe its the same problem. I ended up having to go back to good ol' Windows 7

Also in the task manager is anything topping out at 100% at all?

My specs are:
I7 2600 3.4 GHz turbo up to 3.8 GHz
4 cores hyper up to 8 threads
Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz expandable to 16gb
EVGA GeForce 1050Ti 4GB GDDR5 VRAM HDMI 2.0, Port, DVI outputs
ASUS P8H61-M LE/CSM
Ram 8GB expandable to 16
1Tb harddrive
Windows 10

I heard windows 10 creates problems too but it hasn't started happening till here recently. & fortnite is close to 100% gpu but it freezes everywhere else too

Does anything reach 100% without fortnite running? Like when its idle with nothing open.

I strongly recommend moving the computer to a warmer location of the house.

Nothing, no. I even restarted it before and almost as soon as it got to the startup lock screen, it froze. There's times where it goes hours without freezing, then others where it can't go with minutes of it
