Everytime I play any graphics intensive game my computer crashes after about two minutes of play. League of Legends is fine, but anything like Shadows of Mordor, Assassin's Creed, even Lego Batman it will crash. First the screen goes black, then loud buzzing noise and then the computer resets like nothing happened. I recently upgraded to a new system, my old system ran the graphics card fine so the new improved system shouldn't have any issues. I've unparked all my cores and I have minidump files but no idea how to read them.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

System Specs:
Intel Core i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz
16 GB Corsair memory
EVGA GeForce GTX 780 SC w/ EVGA ACX Cooler
Asus Hero VI MB

Thanks in advance!

Found it! I was using some monitoring software to look at gpu temp and stress test. It passed with flying colors;however, I noticed the gpu temperature not dropping very quickly at all. Also the initial temp of my gpu was at 62 C, which seemed awfully high. I pulled my case apart and just barely was able to look at my video card. The fans aren't spinning, they just sit there. I tried different power connectors and different slots on the psu but nothing, no power to fans. Going to RMA the card and it should fix everything. Thanks for your time guys.

Glad to hear you got it squared away :) and yeah 60c is not acceptable at all for idle temps. It is perfectly acceptable while the GPU is working but not for idle.

Of course my GPU is different, I have an HD 7950, but I am idling at 26c-27c with a huge overclock on it.
