My computer crashes while playing games

frostzilla · Apr 23, 2014

I recently built a new computer with all new parts except for ram, harddrive, optical, and my wifi card. All of which were compatible with the new. Everytime i try to play a game it will crash and now it just crashes my entire computer. Not only games but now software has started to crash regularly. I have attempted a restore but i still get the same errors.

Complete specs? Download HWMonitor and keep an eye on your temps while you are using the PC.

PSU: make/model
RAM: ?
OS : ?

Without that there is no way to even guess as to what the problem could be.

Are those the temps you get when you're gaming?

ranges between 55-60C for each during gameplay

Reset CMOS, reseat RAM and try it with only one stick at once in different slots.
