I have recently upgraded my computer to an AMD fx-8350 3.52 ghz processor and a XFX r9 270x, and it originally had 8 gigs of ram. what I did was move the old hdd over so i didn't have to deal with transferring all of the data over, and everything seemed fine at first. But when I tried to play Crysis 3, Skyrim, and Dishonored, after a few seconds of gameplay, my entire computer crashes. But the interesting thing is that when i play AC4 and Minecraft, they work perfectly fine. I have the latest drivers for my gpu, and i asked my friend how helped me upgrade it and he has no idea, so i need some help.

An update: Now AC4 won't work, and this is after going to latest drivers, so possible that is the issue.But i have no idea as to which driver i should use.

Okay, last update. Turns out, I'm an idiot and my computer had some sort of virus, and upon using my security program, it was removed and the problem went away. My bad, sorry for bugging you guys.

Sorry, it's been a few months so i can not remember what the virus was, but what i can tell you is that avg was the program that found it.
