This is a new gaming build that I bought a couple of weeks ago. I could play any game at playable/good framerates at highest settings. But since the day before yesterday, after I run a game for less than a minute (even at lowest settings in Battlefield 4), the PC completely freezes. The keyboard lights go off, the screen gets stuck with a random plain colour, a short sound keeps looping and Ctrl+Alt+Del/Win key/Alt+F4 or anything doesn't work.
Then I have to press the reset button on my case to restart the PC. I am somewhat sure that it's not a GPU overheating issue as I monitored it with MSI Afterburner (the temp is around 55°C at the time of freezing).
I am desperately in need of help.
PC Specs & Config:
Intel Core-i5 4570 @ 3.2 GHz (Haswell)
8GB RAM
MSI Geforce GTX 760 2GB OC-Edition [Non-OC'ed] [GPU idles at 35°C while ambient temp is around 28°C]
1TB Western Digital Caviar Blue
550W Thermaltake Litepower PSU
120mm Side-intake fan, 120mm back-exhaust fan, 120mm front intake fan
