My pc crashes while playing games,but its kinda weird because it can go 3 days on full load and nothing happens but then suddenly it crashes,it goes all black and i can´t think of nothing to solve it,it is not overclocked(and it does not overheat...stays around 50ºC Cpu and 60-65ºC GPU),it started around 3 months ago,it worked well with WIN 10 for about 5 months but then the crashes started coming.I tried replacing the thermal paste on the CPU in case it was old and the CPU was overheating,tried changing out the drivers,i even updated the BIOS on the motherboard.If any of you has any idea of how to solve this i´m willing to try it.

PC:
AMD FX-8350 4.0ghz(not overclocked)
Asus GTX 770 OC
Asus m5a99fx pro r2.0(motherboard)
Corsair CX-750M
Zalma Z11 Case
Thermaltake NIC F4(CPU cooler)
G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 2x4GB

Thanks in advance.

Yeah the B2 is good! You could also get the EVGA 650W GQ, 750W is overkill for your setup; you only really need about 500-550W.

Your PSU is notorious for causing stability issues. That would be my first guess. I briefly had a CX750 and it was a nightmare. That explains why it works most of the time but will randomly go out on you. Try a new PSU and if that fixes the issue then you have your answer.

EDIT: Refer to this Tom's PSU Tier List guide in case you want to find a good quality PSU. The CX750 falls in the bottom 4th most tier.

One more question,is there any way to tell if it really is the PSU,cause a good PSU here in Spain is around 100 euro and for me (being in school and all) is expensive to pay that kind of money without really knowing if that is the problem. Also,my GPU started overheating at the same time this crashes started,can it be from the PSU too or that is for another reason?
