Game freezing and then video glitches and bad audio.
My computer freezes during video games usually Hearthstone (but does happen in other games i just play that most often). The game will freeze and glitch with green lines and loud screech from speakers after playing for random amount of time. Once it does this I have to do a force quit the game. After this no video will play properly. Be it in VLC player, youtube on firefox or chrome, or even Windows Media Player. The audio is also glitchy until I restart the computer. Once I restart everything is ok again until a Game freezes and we start all over.

I have dual monitors both coming out of the DVI slot on one Geforce GTX 660 video card, which I recently replaced because old video card was overheating and causing BSOD.
The most annoying this is I took the tower. to a trusted repair shop and it won't happen there.
