Screen freezes while playing games

[CeydaSuzer]

The screen freezes while playing games. The computer does not react to anything. I can only shut down the computer with the power button. I installed clean windows. Windows is up to date. BIOS is up to date. The game I play is: Apex Legends. I play at the lowest settings. What should I do? Could you help? Thank you.

• Does this issue occur only while playing this specific game?
• Have you checked with any other applications or games?

Check if the game meets the system requirements.

Make sure the BIOS version is F.21
