I just built a new Gaming PC and all the games i play the games will crash. In Battlefield 4 it will take me to the desktop and i cant open the game back up. In Skyrim, and CS:GO it will freeze and the currently playing sounds will get stuck on a loop and its very annoying. It happens unexpectedly and i am very unsure about the cause.

I have tried a clean install of the drivers and it didnt work. I dont have any more money to get a new GPU so i cant try another one out. I think the Nvidia drivers are conflicting with it somehow.It's either a bad gpu or psu you are looking at here. I would suggest you get the gpu tested with another power supply and if it still buggers around then it's the card else it could be the power supply. If you don't have a spare just ask a friend or take it to a computer shop just to test it

Well that's narrowed it down to your graphics card
It sounds like the Psu may not be giving enough clean power to the gpu, or possibly driver issues. Have you done a clean install of the latest nvidia drivers? It may be best to try another gpu on your system fot a couple hours if you can. then you'd know if you need to RMA the gpu

You spent too much on the Cpu and not enough on the Gpu imo, but that's not the problem...I had the same problem in Bioshock and CSGO, uninstalling all Nvidia software except the driver completely fixed mine, and to test if that will fix it, close all Nvidia processes in task manager and see if you can play a few rounds of CS.
Also, are you overclocked at all?
That didn't fix the problem. And no I am not overclocking at all.
