When does this start? What I mean is...… does it start to freeze immediately? Or after you've been using it for awhile? What temp.'s are you reaching? Does it happen only when you're using the Source Game Engine? Have you tried other Engines , Unity etc.? Does it happen when you have multiple tabs/desktops open? 8 Gigs sounds like a fairly small amount of memory for developing games. How about drivers? You mentioned that it seemed to occur mostly when you had removable drives in the USB ports, have you looked at those? Lastly, you mention reinstalling multiple times with no relief. Is it better right away after a reinstallation and then get worse?
