Fortnite Crashes/PC Freezing

^^Here is the part list to the pc I am having troubles with. The whole pc seems kind of choppy at times it freezes up from time to time and then starts working all of a sudden again basically flawlessly. This is my dad's pc. He really enjoys playing fortnite still. Everytime he enters the game he gets to the beginning of the actual game...past the lobby and everything and it will all of a sudden crash and restart the whole pc. No overclock or anything. I updated the graphics drivers as well. Still same result. I also tried to reinstall fortnite and same issue. He has troubleshot some with some settings in game that he found online that claim to help. That still doesnt work though...

Running Windows 10 as well..debating on reinstalling windows...

Are you running any other programs while you are trying to run Fornite? Maybe like google chrome? background apps?

My dad normally does have internet up behind it... But even system usage is not high...nothing is capping out. It just started happening recently and nothing different than normal

Have you made any changes to the graphics setting of fortnite? 

 

Maybe you can try few of the troubleshoots in this link.

He has tried changing some of them to get it to work. However it often crashes before you can even monkey with settings...

UPDATE!!

I cleaned the PC and after doing some cpu benchmarks and gpu benchmarks, I figured out I had a graphics card problem. As soon as I started up furmark the PC would crash. I then changed the cable from the psu to the graphics card and so far it has been working! Thanks everyone for the ideas!!
