Hey Guys,
I'm having this strange problem where after about 10-15 minutes into a game, the screen freezes and there is no response until about 15 seconds later, when the screen goes black, flickers, and then resumes normal function (AKA I find myself respawning). It happens regardless of map and graphical settings (<b>I have tried turning on/off texture streaming, high/med/low texture settings, just about every other little effect off also. No change.</b>). Any ideas? I have my GPU OC'ed but I have burn-in tested it to make sure it is stable, same with my CPU. Specs are below:
Proc: Phenom 2 720 x3
8 GB GSKILL DDR3 1600 ram
Radeon 6850 1 GB VRAM
600W ModXStream PSU
OCZ Vertex 4 128GB SSD - I currently have Windows and Steam (+NS2) on this drive
Seagate Caviar Black 750GB - I moved NS2 to this to see if it made any difference, still froze. I moved the game files back after testing.
G400 Mouse and CM QuickFire Pro keyboard (I really doubt this is related but you never know)
Any thoughts or similiar experiences?

Fix - Update to Catalyst Control Center 12.10 or 12.11.
I updated all network, chipset, and video drivers to no avail. My HDD is a fairly new 1TB 7200rpm 32mb and I have no issues in other games. (ie BF3, borderlands 2, firefall, planetside 2, everything maxed)
Win 7 x64
i7 2600k 3.4ghz @ 4.2ghz (tested stable with 40 c max temp)
gtx 560 1gb EVGA factory superclock 850mhz
4gb g.skill RAM 1600mhz
If updating catalyst control enter didnt work for you:
A high resolution video posted on youtube (unlisted) would be very helpful, with r_stats and net_stats on the screen.
thanks
