So my problem is that when i play games (example: CS GO, COD BO2, BF3, Payday 2, Batman) it's randomly crashes or freezes ingame and sound stutters.
My pc:
CPU: Intel i5 4690k 3.5Ghz
PSU: XFX ProSeries 550W
CPU COOLER: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
MoBO: Gigabyte z97x Gaming 5
GPU: Asus GTX660 Direct CU II OC edition 2Gb
MEMORY: Kingmax 2*4GB 1600Mhz (I used MemTest 98 for 12 hours and no error found. So my memory is fine.)
SSD: OCZ Agility 4 128GB
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB
When i got this pc about a 2 month ago, i installed steam, and i pasted the steammaps folder from my old pc to this new pc.
Maybe the problem is this, becouse the old pc was win7 and the new is win8?
Also CS GO freezes ingame. I played it on max settings, but its a very poor graphics game. How can it freeze? LOL

Here are things to do:

1. Update the graphics driver.
2. Update the BIOS
3. Install malwarebytes from their website (malwarebytes.org) and run a antivirus scan.
4. If none of the above works then try doing a HDD test to make sure none of the files are corrupted.

Hope this helps.

Sure:

1. go to gigabytes website and download the latest BIOS.
2. If you have a thumb drive laying around, put it on it, however make sure the format on the drive is exfat.
3. If I'm correct this should work, go to the BIOS, then browse around until you see something about updating the bios and follow the instructions.

Is anythig overclocked? If it is, set it back to stock speeds. Your power supply is a good brand so likely we can rule that out as the issue. Maybe a driver issue, maybe a bad card.

If you can, test the card in another system that will be able to run it. That's the best way to rule out the card itself.

Could be a card or maybe a heat issues.

If this happens with every game, I would lean towards one of those as the cause.

Best way to test is to try the card i another system with the specs to run it. If it works fine there, you can rule out the card and look at other things.

I had the problem again, i played CS GO on almost max settings, in the middle of the round it freezed, and i was clicking buttons like ctrl+alt+del, start button, alt+f4, but after that my computer just restarted. What can be the issue? Heat? overclocking? or what?
