I put new parts into my computer (CPU, Cooler, RAM, Graphics Card) and it was running fine for about 10 minutes then it just started to freeze. I had to hold the power button to do anything and upon 3 retries it still freezes. Anyone got a recommendation or any idea to what this is caused from?
Have an AMD computer.

You're asking if your hardware caused this but you don't post your hardware... Telling us what exact components you have will help.

I can't download anything that's the thing. It freezes almost instantly now. My Graphics Card is GeForce GTX 950, Cooler is Be Quiet Pure Rock, (link to processor - [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ) I have an Asus A58BM-A/USB 3 motherboard. Haven't had any troubles before I put new parts in.

Try unplugging your GPU and use the inboard graphics, if you have no problems then the issue lies with the GPU or the power/data transfer to/from it.

What exactly happens? Does your PC boot up at all? Do you get any kind of error messages? Do you hear any distinct beeping sounds from your motherboard?

My PC doesn't boot at all now. I hear no beeping sounds. It just loads a black screen. I clicked for repair when it said recommended and it popped up a blue screen for the first time. Took a picture but finding out how to upload pictures from phone now.

First off try reseating your RAM one stick at a time, you could have a dodgy stick or DIMM slot.
