Last week I finished building my new budget gaming PC and everything has been going great. Up until yesterday, I was playing all games completely fine. Then, Far Cry 3 decides it wants to start rebooting my computer. I could be playing for 5 minutes or 1 hour and it would just randomly happen. It continues to do this ONLY in Far Cry ( I could play Assassin's Creed Black Flag or Skyrim for hours and everything would work great ). I tried lowering settings, switching to DirectX 9, and reinstalling graphics drivers. All signs were pointing to video issues so I stress tested my GPU as well. My GPU passed a burn in test, never going above 63C. Now I'm starting to think it could be the game updates. I had been playing the game for a year on an older PC with no updates and never had any problems.
What do you think?
My setup is:
Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2 (I know it's cheap, but it works well)
AMD FX-6300 (Not OC'd, never runs above 55C)
8GB G.Skil Ripjaw 1333 DDR3 (Passed a Memtest)
Zotac GTX 650 Ti 1GB (Not OC'd either)
OCZ ZT Series 750 Watt PSU
Seagate 1.5 TB HDD (Have yet to check, but Windows works great)
