Default Mac Pro Late 2013 and GPU Freezes

Hello,

Does anyone have this machine and experiencing random freezes with Yosemite, El Capitan or Mavericks?

I have two monitors connected to the mac using a dvi to thunderbolt cable bought from Amazon.

I have 3 Thunderbolt external Drives (Lacie Rugged with a samsung ssd installed in it, a seagate enclosure with an intel ssd in it and a lacie thundebolt 2 d2 drive)

I have an ilok, a usb superdrive, an eleven rack and a usb3 dock connected to usb ports and an apogee thunderbridge to a thunderbolt port

Try removing the USB drive as those can make a lot of weirness for PT.

Would buying a single apple thunderbolt display instead of the two 3rd party monitors solve anything ?

We have 2 external 32" HD TV monitors from Sony and works great. What happens if you start eliminating every external gear and just use one monitor and the interface?
