My Screen goes black during games

Hi.  Both of my monitors, mainly in cs:go, sometimes just go black for a few seconds before turning back on like nothing happened.  My gpu also sometimes has kernel errors.  The kernel errors are in Battlefield 4 and CS:GO.  In CS, the game fixes itself and i can keep playing, but in BF4, I have to ctrl+alt+del to force it closed.  Both my CPU and GPU are overclocked.

Definitely sounds like a case of an unstable OC to me, usually the driver crashing because of it.

Maybe your GPU crashes sometimes (I had that issue) try to update your drivers.

looks like your driver is crashing, overheating, an unstable oc or a faulty card could cause this.

Ok.  I just lowered the overclock.  I will get back to you if it keeps happening.
