I've had random freezes in game for a while, and I never thought much of it, I just assumed it was just a small overload for my graphics processor until I came across a review on the RAM that I have installed in my computer (Corsair Dominator 3x2gb DDR3 1600).
The review said that this RAM gave him freezes in games when he combined it with other brands of RAM and when he used this RAM alone. He also said that he was using this RAM with a ASUS P6T SE board which is similar to mine and both are intel X58 boards.
All I'm wondering is could using this RAM be causing my periodic game freezes? They don't happen that often. I always assumed them to be lag or some sort of game software problem or insufficient graphics or something like that, but I'd be interested to know if anyone thinks that it could be my RAM.
The hardware I have is:
ASUS Rampage Extreme III
ASUS ENGTX 480 1536MB
Corsair Dominator 3x2GB DDR3 1600
Intel i7 930
I've had these screen freezes in-game on more than one hard drive, so it's probably not a hard drive issue.
Please let me know what you think, I have a feeling that it's just insufficient power, but please let me know if it could be a RAM problem
