Recently, I took my video card out of my system(giving to friend as I'm buying a new one) and now when I try to play games, be it Diablo 3, League of Legends, Emulator games, or Rift, my computer freezes after about 5-10mins of gameplay. The system worked great before I took the card out, never having a single problem. I defragged, disc cleanup, ran malwarebytes, ran virus scans, and it was all clean. So I downloaded HWmonitor, and ran prime95 for an hour and my cpu temp never reached above 60degrees celcius and it didnt freeze. So I have no clue what the issue is. Computer specs listed below

My old video card was an AMD Radeon 6750 core edition. And I did uninstall the drivers. Also my two RAM sticks are both 4gb, but one is 1600mhz and the other 1333 or w/e the speed is for that range.
Basically I just need to know why it could be freezing. Because it should not be.
