High never posted here wondering if ya'll could give me some help or advice.
I got this computer a year ago got the parts off of new egg. Had them sent to a friends house (he helped me pick out the parts) he put it together as he knows a lot more about them than I do. Then he sent it to me. Its great and has run perfectly till january of this year.
It started with Mechwarrior Online. When i played after about a week the computer did it the first time. The monitor suddenly went into sleep mode and the sound coming from the computer cut off except for some static. About a week later it started doing it every day when I played the game. So I stopped playing. Now it didn't do this with Any other game. And I have run skyrim at max settings with addons for hours without fault.
So this afternoon i started playing GW2 (another game i've played for hours without a problem before) played for a couple hours stopped, then played again a hour or so. Then it did just what it did in MWO. So i went internet surfing found a couple programs to monitor my computers temps and such. First one read the temp as 90c when i was playing. So i exited the game. Found some reviews of the monitor so i got CUPID Hardware monitor. It recorded much the same readings when u logged into the game Hawken. Just logged in and started it. Bam like 80c.
I took the graphics card out and blew out the card-didnt look to bad a few bunnies and such.
So any idea's? It seems really weird for it to go out after a year.
Oh and right now its running at 39c with just the internet browser (chrome) and a couple things open. Fans are reading at 1300rpm.
Any idea's? Because i really cant afford another GC and im not really all that computer litterate.
Thanks for any help you can think of.
