Hey everyone,

I've built a gaming PC in order to optimize my WoW experience, I had been using the same out-of-the-box Dell since 2007 and I figured it was time to treat myself.

However, I've been having problems with the entire set up crashing. With no notice, often while asking a lot of the system graphically but also during fairly domestic computer-y chores, the monitor goes into standby, I hear (if I've got headphones on) a sort of buzzy dubstep sound for a moment and I have to manually reset the whole rig.

Now, often when I turn it back on, the fan on my GPU starts to kick into overdrive and gets quite loud, and sounds fairly laboured. In addition, I am often unable to get the monitor to recognize its' connection to the GPU, and I have to plug the VGA cord in to get it going analog style.

I've recently uninstalled and reinstalled all of the drivers for my GeForce GTX 560, and am sort of at my wits end because all I see when this catastrophe occurs are little dollar signs floating up to heaven.

My most recent accident report provided me with the following information:

Would love to get some feedback from the community and see where I can go next.

Help me, Tom's Hardware, you're my only hope.
