Hello, a friend of mine upgraded from a Radeon 7770 to a Gtx 960 back in November. Recently, the computer has had fatal crashes at random during games of League of Legends and he has said that there was also performance problems while playing Fallout 4. Originally I thought this was a problem with some sort of feature that turns the fan off while not under load so I created a custom fan curve with MSI afterburner, but the problem persisted. For now he's using his old video card and his computer shows no problems with it. I'm not exactly sure where to go from here. Could it be a problem with conflicting drivers? Is it a weak power supply? (If I remember correct, its 800w bronze certified) Thanks for taking the time to read this, let me know if you need more information.

I originally designed his system so I'm listing the rest of these specs from memory, could be wrong.
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit)
CPU: AMD Fx-6300 (Stock clock speed and cooler)
Memory: 8 gb ddr3
Mobo: Probably This
