System crashes when playing a game

[Alan GE]

Hi.

I have a Srtix Rx580 8gb. the windows crash when I'm playing a heavy game like BFV or metro.

 

the screen freezes suddenly then I have to push the restart button to get back to windows.

 

the card sometimes reaches 75-80c.

 

I guess this problem started when I first ran MSI afterburner.

 

didn't use MSI afterburner before I just use Asus GPU Tweak 

 

 

I never did overclock.  just used the profiles that GPU tweak provides

 

 

 

 

and this from MSI afterburner:

 

 

 

I didn't change anything related to the power limit

 

 

NOTE :

 

When I restart the pc I get an error says :

 

Default Radeon WattMan settings have been restored due to unexpected system failure

 

 

HELP

Can you post your entire rig configuration stating brand and model of every component? If you have no idea you can also download CPU-z and GPU-z and post screenshots of every tab available in (at least) CPU-Z.

 

If you know your way arround, i'd advice to ckeck event viewer under Windows Logs > System, and trace the exact date the first crash happened. The next steps will be checking windows update for that day and of course, driver updates for the GPU. If you have no idea how to do any of this and can't help yourself out after googling, just do what i said in the first paragraph.

 

cheers!
