    Need some advice guys. This baby has a 7970m in it but I really do doubt that its giving me any problems. Problem just recently started happening, I'll be playing League of Legends (like I have countless times) when all of the sudden, random keys start being pushed at random activating certain game mechanics in game, sometimes it minimizes the game, other time it freezes, and had one occasion where it BSOD on me or just a complete lock up.

    I check ram, tested good with 6 passes. Checked 2nd HDD installed, Seagate 750xt, platter tested fine but who knows about the 8gb nand that's in it. Primary HDD is a SSD, 120gb, could be defective but that I am aware of, there no way of testing if its good or bad, or is there?

    Try reseating the keyboard cable, maybe it is loose just slightly so if it gets hit just right the keys go funky.
