PC is locking up when under load and when idling

[Winchester41]

Go into the BIOS and turn on the XMP.

How is the system running?

Which slots are the RAM in?
Check the manual and or the Motherboards site to find out.

According to speccy they are in Slot 1 and 2
According to the motherboards site they should be in A2 and B2

I turned on XMP and that appears to have solved it! Im hesitant to say 100% just because its only been an hour but this the best its been yet, and im actively trying to do the things it did when it crashed.

I know you may not have these answers for me and thats alright, but what is XMP? And also if i turned it on and it fixed the problem how come this problem just started recently?

Glad to hear that progress is being made.

and i did update my bios and it made my problem quite a bit worse

Some times a BIOS update will reset some of the features and settings.

XMP is a form of over clocking RAM.

Before we close it out test the system for a few days and let us know.
