My friend had bought a GTX 770 and a AMD FX 9370, He has to running on a Corsair 750w 80+ Bronze, PSU. Could the freezing and Crashing becaused by a lack of power? When it all freezes the keyboard loses power aswell, as the light goes out.

Ok monitor the temps, and install the latest GPU drivers.

He monitors the temps and its all up to date, would a seperate psu for the gpu be a good option or no? Cause he has a spare psu

You can't use 2 PSU's in one build.

Why don't he use the other PSU to power his system and see if the problem still persists?

also the PSU has more then 2 PCIe connectors so try the other connectors

I use to have a problem where my PC would freeze and the mouse and keyboard would shut off as well.
It was something how my USB ports weren't taking enough power and I had to buy a powered USB hub. This may be one reason it's happening?

Thought it was possible by bridging the 24 pin connector.
