So I've had my gaming computer for a couple years now, and I always keep it clean and up to date (relatively). Recently, games that have worked fine in the past (To be specific: Civ 5, 7 Days to Die, Total War) have started causing my graphics card to start buzzing and after about a minute of this, my PC immediately shuts down.
I assume coil whine on the part of my graphics card, but it shouldn't be struggling like it is with the specs I have. Maybe I am overlooking something?
Specs:
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 950
CPU: AMD FX-4300 Quad Core
RAM: 8 GB
Power Supply: Allied ATX 350
Hard Drive: 1 TB Raidmax (?)
I did notice heat coming from the area near my graphics card...not a huge amount, but enough to feel it without touching the card. If heat is the issue, how can I prevent this? (I have tried the fans)
