So I've had this issue with my computer for a while. for a couple of months, my computer would freeze when I was playing intensive games with whatever was on the screen last staying there. The computer would be unresponsive and I'd have to force shutdown. It wouldn't create any logs or something to look at in the event viewer.

It first happened when i started playing DayZ SA but then it started happening when I watched youtube videos @1080p full screen, and other games.

After searching many threads, I decided to replace my mobo, ram, and psu as those seemed very likely to have been causing the trouble.

After installing the new hardware, my computer now restarts instead of simply freezing... progress I guess. Now i've finally given up and i'm asking for help.

Before you ask, my temps don't get too high. All of the fans are working properly. I've tried different video drivers and had the issue with all of them.

Specs below

Windows 8.1
mobo: GA-78LMT-USB3
CPU: AMD-FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor (8 CPUs), ~4.0GHz
Memory: 8192MB
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series
PSU: Corsair 650W
SSD: ADATA SX900 256 GB

If anyone has suggestions, please help :(

I'm checking the voltages with CPUID HWMonitor and from previous threads, i'm not sure if it's the most reliable but i don't know what else to use.

Can someone tell me what the values should be cause I think mine are low

like for "+5V" it says the value is 2.782 and for "+12v" its 7.92, and for "-12v" it's -8.92.

I don't really know much about psu and voltage and whatnot. I just replaced the PSU so maybe the issue is the voltage is set low in the BIOS? I have no idea.

EDIT: Checked PC health or whatever in the BIOS and the above voltages weren't the same as HWMonitor reported

Borrowed my buddies extra graphic card and plugged it in. It crashed 5 minutes into nba 2k15. I bought a new CPU and it looks like everything is good to go. No crashes so far.
