Computer freezing while playing games?

borko3fkovixac

I've recently upgraded my graphics card.
I have seen a lot of posts about this problem and everyone is saying that is the overheating problem. But its not. My temps are on 30C idle, and 55-60C on max load.

When my computer freezes, its unresponsive to mouse or keyboard, and audio is repetitive, sounds kind of like bees buzzing or drilling, so i have to button reset.

It happened so far in Goat Simulator, Hitman Absolution, Bulletstorm, Alice Madness Returns, and it freezes fastest in Crysis 3 - time before freezing varies, it can happen in 5 mins or 2hrs, sometimes even doesn't but in 95% cases it does, which is really annoying.
It doesn't happen in Left 4 Dead 2, Portal 1 & 2, DmC Devil May Cry, and (surprisingly) in Battlefield 3 and Tomb Raider, even when I max the graphics out.
I don't own any other games so I could only check for this.
I've monitored it in Crysis 3 via MSI Afterburner and there was time when my gpu load was at 100% for few minutes and it was fine, and later it dropped to around 30% and it was still fine, and when it froze it was at 66%(if that info means something).

Drivers are up to date and no dust in case.
