Alright so basically I'm getting these weird freezes in Black Ops and other games(cod4, WoW, Red Faction, etc.) I can be playing one second and then it will randomly just freeze up and I have to ctrl-alt-del and than press esc to get back in(pretty much exit the game some how and come back in). My computer has always done this and I have tryed this with 3 video cards. The first one was when I first built my computer with a 5770 which I returned because I thought that was the culprit. I than obtained a used 8800 which did the same thing! After that i settled in with a gts 275 and pretty much gave up. in CoD4 it wasnt too bad because I could get back in game much faster but with black ops the wait is unbearable and it has happened many times in matches which is starting to become a problem.
So what I am wondering is what could be the culprit? mobo,ram,cpu,hard drive?
sometimes it also freezes up with sort of a tint over all of the screen and when it seems like the freezing is happening a lot, it sometimes does some light artifacting usually before a freeze. a few times i have also gotten sort of like a snow artifacting after a freeze where pixels are flicking black and white.
PS I already tried reformatting and reinstalled windows and drivers and the works. nothing is OC'd and CPU/GPU run at good temps
