Hello everyone
I'm becoming very frustrated because of a very strange crash.. Very often when I'm gaming or just browsing the internet, (half an hour, 2 hours,.., randomly )
Suddenly I get a kind of blue screen. It is not the typical blue screen but my screen becomes light blue or yellow/orange, with some horizontal lines in it. The log doesn't say anything about the error.
My specs:
i7-4770K CPU @ 3.50GHz
AMD Radeon HD6870
8GB RAM
ASRock Z87 Extreme 4 motherb.
OS Windows 7 64bit
If you need to know more info, please tell me!
Thanks!

I thought firstly that it was overheating, however it never goes above 50-60°C, that's still a safe temperature?
So I downloaded "SpeedFan" to monitor the temps, but they are always around 50°-60°C..

OP is kind of at a bad point here.If he has an i7, he's obligated to get a very high end GPU, otherwise the GPU will have the performance of if it was with an i3/5. He should really try to get a GTX 770 or Radeon R9 280. Those are better options for his CPU.
So a new GPU will likely solve the blue screens?.. It has nothing to do with my PSU?

It's weak considering he has an i7 4770K.It's also very old.
A GTX 760, or an AMD 270X are both great options.
What would your budget be for a new GPU?
I have no idea about the budget.., not more then 250-300€?
770 seems to fall in that area. I know it should be close if not in that range.

Will i need a new PSU then? because this one, is about somewhere in the 500 Watts and it is just enough for my setup..

Here you go! This card will perform amazingly well as compared with what you're used to, and is well within your budget. It's the best value GTX 770 out.
