@samcool55 Corsair RM850W Gold Rated @Jurrunio Factory clock until I can sort this issue.

Hi all, I've got an unusual issue with my PC:When the PC is booted cold, it will be fine with menial tasks until you turn it off, no issue there. When the PC is cold and you do anything intensive such as gaming, it will hard crash or hang, sometimes even BSOD approximately 15 minutes after you begin the intensive task. It will always do this without fail.After being restarted from the crash, it will happily carry out menial or intensive tasks until you turn if off and let it go cold again.I've run memtest, everything is okI've run Intel Burn Test, everything is okI've run Furmark from cold, it crashes. I've run Furmark post crash and it is okay though my temps are a little higher than I'd like but thats my own laziness in not dusting it out for a while. This seems to be a GPU issue but I have had the GPU RMA'd and was told it was fine. (only one sent back because this issue began before I received my 2nd GPU.)Drivers are always up to date. Anything you lovely people can suggest I try? System: CPU - Core i7 5820k GPU - 2x MSI 980 GTX's RAM - 16gb DDR4, Corsair VenganceMOBO - MSI X99 M-Power

Nope, not a single overclock, I think I've found the fix, someone suggested the GPU was faulty, I used the GPU from my old system and so far, no crashes.

Just ran FC3 using realtemp and a couple of other programs: At the time of the crash CPU @ 44C GPU @ 67C GPU utilisation 99% These 3 games are the only ones so far being rendered using Nvidia's own DSR, could that affect anything?

I have checked the seating, I had an issue with late CPU initialisation, that turns out to be one stick of DDR4 not seated correctly. Everything is now in place. Temp wise, I have a temp display on the mobo and its never gone higher than 55c and the cpu is not overclocked.

Yes, about a day after I built it, I loaded Metro Last Light and 5 mins in it froze. I've had the system 2 weeks now but I've been so busy at work I haven't had time to diagnose it.

Morning guys, I recently build myself a new system and in all its glory it also likes to hang and not in a good way. Whenever I play Crysis 2, Far Cry 3 or Metro Last Light, the whole system hangs after around 3 - 10 mins of gameplay, I have to hold down the power button. It has also suffered from a system hang in a couple of other games after a few hours but there are games that aren't GPU intensive. These 3 games are the only ones so far that push the GPU as I get no higher than 50fps in all 3. Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this? I do have the latest GPU drivers installed. I am about to run memtest for 4 hours. System spec for anybody that needs it: Core i7 5820k MSI X99 M-Power board 16GB DDR4 Corsair Vengance @2400mhz 980GTX MSI Twin Frozr Samsung 840 SSD @ 240GB WD 1TB HDD Corsair RM850 PSU Corsair Graphite 760T All of these parts are brand new apart from the SSD and HDD because they came from my old system.
