Computer stuttering and freezing

Hello So I've been having this problem since a bit after I built my computer of my computer freezing up both in keyboard and mouse input and some graphics as well. It get's worse and worse the more hours go by to where even just moving the mouse makes that "can not register mouse input" beeping sound when just moving or clicking anything.

During the freeze ups the GPU drops to almost nothing and yet CPU jumps up quite a bit. I have found no processes that's really consistently pulling anything.

I have replaced the graphics card, PSU, and Cooler all to no avail and brought it to a repair place who could do nothing useful. I have done all the usual stuff, drivers, compatability, dropped any suspect software, run multiple virus detections, cleaned registery, gone through startup programs, even completely wiped my whole computer multiple times.

The only thing that seems to help a bit is weirdly refreshing the windows explorer in task manager which sets the stuttering back to like hour 1 stutters of about .4 seconds

I'm kinda at my wit's end please help!

I took two videos of the problem to illustrate with hardware and process monitors running (sorry for show going but show's that it only effects software running not videos playing, oddly)

Hello Anansi,

 

Missing from your parts list is the most important of information, can you post the brand and model name or number of both the present and the previous PSU.

This is the old one

The CM PSU is a really old model and the brand not the best but you would expect better of the EVGA even though it is from their budget range, this you can tell by it only having a five year as opposed to a ten year warranty.

 

Is the EVGA out of the box new and therefore still under warranty.

 

There is something else of note but being that the behaviour you describe is typical of something overheating we need to check the PSU info first.
