Hey, got a 4year old computer... and just today its started crashing like it NEVER has before. I've played four games today, chivalry, smite, dishonored, and borderlands 2. I played chivalry for at least 30 minutes, and it was fine. I played smite (a MOBA) for about 30 seconds and it crashed. The computer screen went blue, and said "no signal" as if my monitor was disconnected. I heard buzzing in my headphones, as well as some sort of whirring inside my tower, like a fan going way too fast. My computer stayed on but I had to manually shut it down. I tried to play smite two more times and it happened pretty much within 2 minutes. Then I tested out dishonored, thought maybe it was my video card dieing... dishonored at max settings would give it a good run, and I played it crash-free for probably 15-25 minutes. I thought the problem laid with smite at that point... so I jumped to borderlands 2. Within 5 minutes of loading in, the same crash happened. Twice on reboots after crashed my computer told me its overclocking had failed. I dont even understand that as I dont overclock... or I dont mean to if i do. I cant see any logical reason as to why smite and borderlands crash, and yet dishonored and chivalry do not. Help please

That is NOT blue screen of death, this is hardware related.

Might be that the Power Supply is not giving the needed power to the motherboard when the usage of the GPU/CPU gets high.

Can you tell what is your Power Supply unit, your CPU and your GPU? Please try to provide full specs of your computer.
