So I recently built a budget gaming pc and everything is brand new, its been running great and randomly while using Chrome it started displaying BSOD... and then after i uninstalled chrome it began crashing in game (Rust) randomly, could be a minute in or a few hours in. All temps on cpu and gpu have been great. Idles are around room temp ( little more give than take 29/30c) and same for gpu, under load it never goes over 55c. I figured since i'm using an ati sapphire r9 270 the new beta driver (amd castalyst 14.6 beta) was screwing things up so i went back to the last update, and re downloaded Chrome, then changed the compatibility to windows 8 (running 8.1). And now the BSOD is gone, but it still goes black in games and reboots randomly... could this be a faulty gpu, i just bought it and its been fine till now.. any help?
