I get a blue screen of death, or a freeze when I am playing some game. First I thought that it is a Graphic Card issue, so I ought a new one, but I still get the same. I think that it is a cooling problem, because when I remove the cover of my PC, it doesn't get the blue screen.

That's nvidia drivers. Update your graphics drives.

I had the same problem.
Before u waste any money try increasing the power consumed by the GPU this fixed the problem for me.
But if that doesn't work go on the Nvidia website and download the drivers for ur system and do a clean install.

Also check ur gpu temp by using afterburner or other third party software and if it above 45-50c when ur not gaming then its definitely an overheating problem. So u should either buy additional fans for the system or increase the fan speed by using afterburner or other software's like EVGA Precision X.

Ok Thiruy97, I will try. But how to increase the poower consumed by GPU?
Also I want to say that I have nvidia Experience and the latest drivers clean installed. I have Nvidia GeForce GT620 with 2GB ram, and it's temp is about 55c when not gaming, but the fans work at 40-50%, and never above 60%

Ur temp is very high i have the MSI GTX 760 and my GPU is around 26c when not gaming.
U might want to invest in a new fan for ur system.

And to increase the power consumption download EVGA Precision X and it should allow u to increase the fan speed and power consumption. Ur GPU must have come with a cd that has adition tools.
I used MSI afterburner.

I would recommed that you increase the fan speed to 70% it will get a bit louder but deal with it.
Secondly for power it depends on your system u can increase it all the way at fist and see what happens or increase it 10% at a time.
