Solution
Well this can be something happend with the temps or your HDD.
Is it solved or not?
If it still not solved try these steps:
1. Remove your CMOS battery for 30 seconds and put it back in.
2.Disable your onboard graphics and enable dedicated graphics in your BIOS.
3. Close all your background tasks and start overwatch. If this occur in all your games go to Steam and do files check on Steam just search on Google.
4. Check your temps from your CPU and GPU because they can throttle back if they getting hot.
5. (recommended because this is the easiest option) Do a windows reinstall with KEEPING FILES OPTION ON if you want your files not be removed and your games.

This is going to be odd, but try it anyways, won’t kill the system.

1) Make sure System is off
2) take out all ram sticks
3) put ram sticks back in (try same slots first, if it doesn’t work, different slots)
4) power on.

Edit: to whoever downvoted...well, it worked for me once, I didn’t say this was the absolute solution.
