I am usually able to find the answer on here but unfortunately cannot find the question this time.
I build a pc with a gigabyte gtx 1060 the thing worked perfect but I decided I wanted more so I upgraded to a Asus Gtx 1080. Now my problem is that sometimes when I load a game, the game just finishes loading, or just randomly when I am playing my computer freezes for about 1sec then it shuts down, sometimes with a buzz. I have reinstalled the graphic drivers but it didn't help. I have monitored temps and it never even reached 70°c. When it crashes the event viewer shows kernal-power id 41 but it doesn't show anything else. I don't want to rma unless I have to, I just bought the 1080 last week, I should also mention that it is a factory oc card. Thank you for any suggestions you guys have.
