Then I have to hold down the power button to restart it. I have videos of what is happening alongside CPUZ and HWmonitor if you guys would like to see those. Basically after about 2 minutes of playing CS:GO (a 3D FPS) my computer will go to a black screen, my monitor will tell me it lost video signal, and my audio will start to stutter basically into a loud buzzing sound endlessly. My computer seems to stay on with lights flashing and fans spinning (no variance between when the crash happened and after/before). I am then forced to turn it completely off and turn it back on where windows tells me of an unexpected shutdown. This has never happened before. It started about yesterday night and over night I reinstalled windows thinking that would solve my problem, but it did not. Thanks in advance for your guys' help!

My specs are:
Nvidia EVGA 760 superclocked (driver 347.52)
Intel i5 4670k (not overclocked, stock cooler)
8 GB g. skill ram
Corsair GS700 700 Watt PSU
Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)

update 1: So I ran a prime95 test for 4 hours and no errors or warnings showed themselves so I am at the conclusion that it is a GPU issue. If anyone can help diagnose this further that would be great.

I just finished a Prime95 torture test that lasted about 4 hours and it passed with flying colors. Im testing my GPU now with EVGA OC scanner. I will get back to you on temperatures as soon as i have them.

Ok so testing my GPU with OC scanner from EVGA it seems that my computer does the exact thing i mentioned in my first post when i start the PhysX v1 (gpu) test.
