any game i play this happens. Even games that aren't graphically demanding.it will play fine for about 2 mins and then comes the black out screen then returns to game and rinse and repeat.When it gets really bad, it just Blue Screens on me. I do not Overclock. When i check the temperature it says reaches 70-80C now when the average was 50-60. Is the graphic card dying? or the PSU?. i have my computer hooked up to a 46inch hdtv. everything is fully updated.
I've used Furmark and the animation very slow and the temp reaches well over 90C (i stopped it there).About 2 mins it Furmark crashes

That gpu temperature is really high. Do you have proper ventilation in your case? Try blowing it out with PC-safe compressed air or a leafblower. If you mean the game black screen and closes then you are at the desktop that sounds like a driver crash. Try updating drivers, and if you are overclocked use the stock settings and see if that helps. Just for reference about your temperature - the max safe temperature for that card is 100 C before you run into trouble.
