My PC keeps crashing whilst I'm playing games, the monitor goes black and says "No Signal". However the lights are still on and the fans go into hyper mode and become really loud, I need to reboot the PC with the power button. 4 months back I split a drink into my PC via the top vent because I'm an idiot, after letting it dry and cleaning it out the PC was working fine.

A month later these crashes started happening, I could barely run a game for 5 mins without it happening, also I couldn't even run a FurMark test for a second without it crashing. However I cleaned it out again and changed the GPU to a different PCI slot and everything seemed to be working fine again.

2 months later the problem came back again and I'm struggling to figure out which piece of hardware is faulty so I can replace it, I've ran an Prime95 test for 12hours and no errors. I also don't think it's overheating as my GPU and CPU never go above 70 C whilst gaming in the past or just before the crash.

So, Any ideas PSU? GPU? MOBO?

Thanks

This is my temps when idle, however I can't run a game long enough to take a temp, it now crashes within 5 seconds of loading the game and a GPU stress test crashes after one second. I doubt it is overheating as it would take alot longer for the GPU or CPU to overheat. Also I remember when my PC was working, the temps weren't so bad whilst gaming, around 65C max
