Hi Tom's Hardware! Since you might already have read the title you know what this is about. My Gigabyte GTX 670 works perfectly fine when watching HD videos or just browsing on the internet. But when i start a game it suddenly crashes(and just before the crash the gfx fans goes to 200% in speed and sound). It doesn't even get past the loading screen. And i've done some testing myself and games where the gpu isn't needed like Minecraft and Terraria the computer runs perfectly fine(though the fans still run at 200%).

Psu : Corsair 750w (bought it about six months ago)
Ram : Corsair Vengance 2x4GB LP (bought it about six months ago)
Motherboard : AsRock B85 Pro4 (bought it about six to nine months ago)
Cpu : Intel i5 4670k stock speed (bought it about six to nine months ago)

The Graphicscard was a birthdaypresent. It worked at first but after a few days i got this problem.

And it can't be overheating because the airflow and overall cooling is perfect.

the thing is that i already got this suggestion by a friend, that's why i have the corsair psu. I changed my old one to this one. This problem was back then also
