Don't really know how to check that to be honest.

Alright I checked while I was on TDM max temp's it was hitting was 55c. I saw no drops in terms of core clock either.

Noticed it also freezes when I'm on google chrome, whether that be me watching a YouTube video and the video freezes for a few seconds whilst the audio carries on in the background, or when I'm loading a new tab it freezes my PC for a couple of seconds and it goes back to being normal after that. I only have 1 stick of ram (8GB) I don't know if that could be the issue.

Yes, 8gb ram is the issue I used to have the fps drops, ever since 64 bit came out you would use more ram 8gb is not enough, ARMA takes like 5-7 gb of ram depending on your settings and then you have a recorder on which means it will even take more ram, upgrade your ram asap, you are overloading.

Tbh i just upgraded my pc aswell, got rather same specs (besides i got the ryzen 1800x with a special ryzen motherboard, and haven't had a single framdrop/memleak yet)

Alright so far what I've done is completely reset my PC and got a fresh install of windows. took apart my PC parts today cleaned them and also re-applied thermal paste. I launched up AIDA 64 and started a system stability test and ran it for 5 mins with no thermal throttling but my temps were hitting around 75c under 100% load and OC 4.8GHz @1.3v . I'm still getting the same freezing issue and it seems to be out of game as well. If anyone has any ways to fix this that would be great.
