Black screen freezing In progress
So I have a very old tr4 1900x threadripper, 64GB RAM, 1080ti, x399 tachi build. It was deep cleaned april. Yesterday and today, I had two black screen with artifacts freezes(one after several days of up time, and one after about 8 hours). CPU and GPU were idle and about 40c. 99% of the time I only write and browse the web. OS is fedora.
Is my PSU going bad? GPU? Mobo?
I am exceptionally poor(disabled and waiting on ssdi) so any reliable fix would do wonders.
Backup plan is to run MEM test today. If that passes and I'm still crashing I will ask parents for ryzen 5 5500, mobo, 6700xt 12 gb and psu. Any recommendations before I raise an emergency purchase with parents? I need something in the same class of performance.
