What happened?

I was playing The Witcher 3 and all of a sudden my computer just turned off?. My monitors said no signal then went off into standby, but all of my fans and leds were still on, also the hard drive activity leds were still going. After hard restarting my computer it went to functioning correctly as it should. Is there something I should be concerned about here? It's the first time something like that has ever happened. My temps were fine and this happened to the rig in my signature, so it's not incompatibility of parts. Anyone know what could of happened?

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 @ Stock, CPU cooler: Dark Rock 4, Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX, RAM: 2x8GB Crucial Ballistix DDR4 @ 3000Mhz, GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 ACX 3.0, SSD: Crucial P1 1TB M.2 + 2x120GB SSDs, Case: Corsair 110R, PSU: Corsair TX650M, OS: Windows 10 64-bit.

you realize that your title can be interpreted as racism no? Or more of racial superiority.

Can't believe I didn't think of this...

 

This is the culprit.

I believe this is an issue with Witcher 3? And the critical error is when I had to hard restart it..

 

Thank you.

Take it as you will, it's of little concern to me.

if possible roll back the driver

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

Your lucky... My GPU blackscreened in Witcher 3, restarted and it no longer boots in ANY machine I have at home...not with other bios's (3 tested), not with beefier PSU's or other machines..

 

It's royally fucked.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
