When playing games for long period of times my PC completely freezes, sometimes with an accompanying buzzing noise. It's definitely not a heat issue as the graphics card never goes above 63C and CPU stays below 60C. Sometimes I can play games for hours at a time with no crash. This only seems to happen in games where the GPU is under 100% load so I'm pretty sure it's either the GPU or the power supply.

Any ideas what the problem could be?

Windows 10 64-bit
i5 6600k
16GB 2666MHz DDR4
Asrock z170 extreme4
MSI GTX 970
Corsair RM650W

Will try borrow a PSU from a friend. As I have noted in the OP the system temps are fine. Idle temps are also good.
