So I recently built a pc about a month ago. Soon after I built the pc it started to crash and the fans went crazy and the rgb lights stayed on. Then I reinstalled all the drivers and it seemed to work fine for a month. Now two days ago the problem began to start again I assumed my pc was overheating but that was not the case, it kept happening until yesterday I installed the lastest game ready driver for nvidea. I assumed that this would do the trick but it hasn’t and still continues to crash even ten minutes after I restarted it due to the same issue. Please help this is driving me crazy!

 

The screen loses signal, All the fans go crazy and the rgb lights stay on the only way to restart it is to tun off the power supply and turn the pc back on I’m not sure wether it’s a peice or hardware or the drivers as I’m very new to the pc community as this is my first pc I’ve owned and the first I’ve built.

Create a log for us to look at if you can.

 

Download HWiNFO here - https://www.hwinfo.com/

 

How to create a log:
Open HWiNFO and in the bottom right there is an icon that looks like a spreadsheet with a green plus on it.
Click that button to start logging, the green plus will switch to a red X to let you know its saving data. 
It will also ask you for a file name and where to save it. I save them to my desktop, name it whatever you want.
Let it run for a few moments or until the machine locks up, resets, or does whatever its not supposed to do,
Then click the spreadsheet again so the red X turns back to a green +.
You now have a log file.

 

How to view the log file:
You can view the log using the GenericLogViewer addon here https://www.hwinfo.com/add-ons/
Download, extract, run GenericLogViewer.exe, click the open file button in the top right and point it to the log file you made above.
Use the dropdown in the upper right to choose which category to view
