Hello, a few days ago i bought and built a new PC. Everything seemed to be going fine until i opend the witcher 3 at the highest settings.
Everything wotks fine when im playing at medium settings.

The sceen just keeps freezing after a few secounds, then the game crashes, sometimes making the computer restart, and sometimes just becomes more or less not responsive for a few minutes and the desktop screen.

I have tried new drivers and software updates.
I've used the CD coming with the Mobo and installed all that software to.
I'm using Corsair Link to check the heat, which dosn't go over 45 C, on anything.
I've also used the program HeavyLoad to test the RAM and PSU which runs fine.

Specs:
ASUS geForce GTX 1070 8 GB GDDR5
Corsair 32GB (2-KIT) DDR4 2133 RAM
Corsair Hydro H80i V2 GT CPU cooler
PSU Fractal Design EFFEKT 600W
Intel Core i7 6700k socket 1151
MK Gigabyte GA-z170- HD3INET
Windows 10.

If anyone vould help me with this, i would be eternally grateful.
