DxDiag: View attachment DxDiag.txt
Some time ago I bought a brand new computer. I've had no issues and every game has ran smoothly. But now I'm encountering some problems, such as The Witcher 3 not performing optimally, not even Total War: Attila. It's not lagging but it's not flawless either. And I find this strange considering I have two GTX 980's.
1) Sometimes when I start my computer then it doesn't activate devices such as the monitor, the keyboard or the mice. They don't light up, and the monitor doesn't receive any feedback. I can solve this by shutting down my PC and starting it again.
2) Sometimes when I've booted my PC or left it inactive (but on) for a long time and return, I will get freezes. The whole computer can freeze from 3-20 seconds or indefinitely. This only happens sometimes, which is why it's so strange. One day I can play any game, the whole day, without getting freezes. Another I cannot. It seems to help to use CCleaner and then restart the PC.
3) Sometimes when my PC freezes and shortly unfreezes, then I can get corruption in the screen, lots of black bars in random places, pixels are displaced and sometimes I can't use it probably because it froze with the graphical errors. I can also add that I'm getting the "driver nvidia windows kernel mode driver stopped working" error.
4) There are two fans right next to my harddrive docks, one of them works and the other is just inactive. I've used Cpuid HWmonitor, and it's not hot at all. It might activate if it gets too warm but I haven't checked.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm mostly concerned about the graphic errors and why some games might be slow even though they shouldn't be.
