I bought a brandnew bundle from TechFast in Jan 2021 and the PC comes in Feb 2021 (4 weeks for delivery). Core i7 10th gen, RTX 3070, 16GB Ram, 500GB SSD for $1950. The PSU is the Gigabyte P650B, 80+ bronze.
(*) After receiving the PC for a day, I have downgraded the GPU from RTX 3070 to GTX 1050 and sold the RTX 3070 to my friend.
The computer starts freezing randomly. I have tested all SSD, Ram are perfectly okay.
I have tried to use another RAM and hard drive, but the problem still persists. I brought the PC to the local PC repair for another checking. They could not find the problem. They plug another GPU card to check, and it is still freezing. All hardwares/softwares donot show any indication of failure.
But, the PC still crashes/freezes after 1-2 hours, sometimes 3-5 hours…
I really want for the warranty, but am afraid that I have changed the hardware (*) although I fully aware that the issue doesnot come from this hardware changed.
I am sharing a story for those who may have the same issue. Also, I am looking for advice/idea?
Note: I have used DDU to clean and install the latest GPU driver.
Thanks for reading.
Cheers,

Your local PC repair is crap. How could they not find the problem.
Sounds like PSU to me. Have you tried changing the PSU?
