So, I recently brought my computer into a PC repair place and got my liquid cooling torn out and put fans in. But the problem is (and this was happening before the cooling got taken out) I've tried every game I have almost, including steam and they all crash and steam doesn't even launch. This is so frustrating i've even cleaned out my GPU. And looked at many forums. Can anyone help?
All games crash to desktop.

stress test each part of your PC, Prime95 for CPU, memtest86 for ram, furmark for GPU, this way you'll find out if any of those components is the culprit.
Alternatively, this could be a software-related issue, start with a registry clean with CCleaner and if furmark fails with the GPU try reinstalling the drivers (uninstall them properly with DriverCleaner Pro) before jumping into a hardware-fail related conclusion.

Could it be because my card only has 256 mb of vram? here is the GPU data from GPU shark
