Hi everyone so i got myself a gtx 460 which i installed into my pc..

Specs:
Fx 6300 six cores
Amd 970 gaming mobo
500W coolermaster n500 80 plus
Gtx 460 1GB overclocked
OS:windows 10

The problem is that my gpu in idle has temps like 32 C which isn't bad but when i go into a game for example far cry 2 it plays for 2 minutes then i get a blackscreen and after about 5 minutes it restarts.

I then downloader furmark strestest and to my surprise the card reached temps like 67 C then went to the blackscreen...is this maybe my PSU or my GPU busy dying?
