Not sure what is causing the problem... Would love to findout
I'm using windows 10.... (i hear it freezes every now and then)
Although i'm not sure if it's windows 10, i'm wondering if it's hardware related....

You have a heat problem.

Max. core temp for an FX-6300 is 62C.
You're at 56C while computer is doing nothing....NOT good. It should be about 30-35C when computer is idling.

You probably need a decent CPU cooler, maybe a better case, and some case fans.
Might be the thermal paste has dried out on your CPU heatsink.



/e What case do you have, and what CPU cooler do you have?

mmm I have four fans... I adjusted my comptuer so it can get more air, hopefully that'll fix the problem, we'll see :)

There should also be a setting in your BIOS to allow you to run the CPU fan at full speed.
It's in the Hardware Monitor section of your BIOS. It's called Smart Fan Control. When it's disabled the CPU fan runs at 100%.


/e Or, you can set a fan "curve" so the CPU fan speed increases as the load does.

If you still have the stock CPU fan, that came with the CPU, then you should probably run it at 100%, all the time.
