My rig is:
CPU: AMD FX6300,
GPU: Palit GTX460.
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2X4)
PSU: Corsair CX500M
Since this morning my computer has been having weird issues. It first started when I tried to play Bad Company 2. I loaded the menu fine and started playing the first mission, it played for about 2/3 minutes then the screen just froze and the system shut down and restarted. I tried to read what the issue was with the game. No results.. I then tried to play the game again in multiplayer, found a server then it crashed within a minute. I then restarted one more time and tried to play Arkham City this time. it lasted for about 5 minutes then the screen went fuzzy and the colours looked smudged. Then the computer crashed. I tried to turn in on again and this time there were green bars all over the screen and the loading windows screen came up then there was a bluescreen error and it just reset. then the option to go into safe mode came up, I selected that and safe mode loads up but there are green lines all over the screen. I've tried cleaning dust, uninstalling drivers. everytime i try to start up in normal windows it crashes.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't overheating, the temps were in the 50/60s.. I'm so unlucky as it just came out of warranty a few months ago. I'm getting a new card soon anyway : )
