Recently my PC has been crashing suddenly, so far it has happened playing CS:GO and World of Tanks but nothing else. When it crashes I can hear a fan working in overdrive but I'm not sure which one, it is either an issue with my CPU or my GPU, I'm guessing from this it's an issue with heat.
I'm currently swaying towards the GPU being the issue because of what happens when it crashes, a red screen is shows with white vertical lines down it (main monitor) whereas on my second monitor it is usually just a white screen.
I've also played games whilst keeping an eye on CPUID but nothing unusual turned up. GPU got to around 60C and the same with my CPU.
If someone could help it would be much appreciated, I want to be sure on the issue before i spend money on a replacement.
My PC specs:
CPU: AMD FX8350 4.00GHz
GPU: AMD Sapphire 7850 2GB
RAM: 8GB
Mobo: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
Storage: 250gb Kingston SSD (OS and Games)
1tb WD HDD (Games/Data)
500GB Seagate (Data)
