I've got problem with my Batman Arkham City and Arkham origins. After playing couple of minutes sometimes my games crashed, but I think it doesn't matter. But what is more annoying, that my pc is frozen and I have to reboot it manually. I've never got any issues with BF4, Crysis 3, Tomb Raider, and other games.... but only two of this games...

any one got the same issues and know how to fix it?

already.... update all driver and apply all the newest patches...

new power supply?

i mean... between batman and bf4 ... which one is heavier.... and uses more power?

it never happens in BF4 or other games... weird right?
 
i think... bf3 uses more resources.
i mentioned the psu because OP said that the pc freezes and you have to manually reboot. i generally suspect hardware issue e.g. psu or overheating of components. it's just one factor to check off.
other reasons could be windows or other software messing with the games. do you notice anything out of place when the games crash?
did you try reinstalling the games?

Is it Error Code 41 in Event Viewer? Look,I have Windows 8.1 and I was facing issues with some games,about the PC freezing/doing a force shutdown.Weird thing was,ARMA III,which is quite demanding (maybe the most demanding at the moment),never crashed while Dirt Showdown (a more GPU taxing game) crashed repeatedly.What I did was change all the power settings in the Windows Power Plans to Maximum Performance and disabled Link State Power Management and USB Selective Suspend Setting.I also underclocked my CPU by 100 MHz.Haven't experienced any crashes/hard resets till now.
Oh yes,one thing you must do is to update your LAN driver.In fact,update it first and then try these settings.Hope it solves your problem.:)
Also,it could be an issue with the GPU's OC,if there is one.

I've solved my problem....

seems there's something wrong with my GPU, it only happens when I play game with Dx11

but never happens when without Dx11 ...

i have replaced it with amd r9 270x it seems the problem solved
