PC Black screening after a few minutes of use

[Kroggen]

I just build a new pc everything seemed to be fine, and working properly.

Then i installed windows and it booted just fine. after a few minutes of use, it would all of a sudden black screen, and when i restarted it would not be booting properly anymore.

i have tried everything i could find on the web, but nothing seemed to work.
Then if i reinstalled windows it would work fine for a few minutes then do the same thing.
my bet is that the graphics card is toast.
but if anyone on here have an idea to what is happening i'm happy to try.

Thx in advance

Just quote me or tag me: @Zando Bob so I can see you replied. Did you update the BIOS on your mobo? 100-series mobos won't work with Kaby Lake unless they have an updated BIOS. And that PSU is not very good, but since it's new, I doubt it's the problem. That'd be a question for @STRMfrmXMN or @Energycore.

@Zando Bob i have not updated the bios, i will most deff try that, i will let you know if it works

You may need a Skylake CPU to do that, though since it manages to boot, that may not be the problem. Is everything plugged in correctly? And have you seated the CPU cooler properly, with thermal paste and everything? If the CPU overheats, it'll make your computer shut off instantly. 

[Kroggen]

@Zando Bob well it boots on first try when freshly installed windows, but i just started the update of the bios, might take a few minutes before the usb is ready tho, everything is plugged in like it should, and i can also boot in safe mode, if i reinstall windows i can also boot and use the pc for about 5-10 mins before black screening again. and yes the cpu cooler is on properly, and the temps max out at around 60 degrees Celcius.

60 degrees at idle? That aint normal

Good. Only other thing I can think of is the PSU, but it's new, so it shouldn't be throwing a fit.

He said max. @Kroggen, is that the max idle temp? Or is that the max temp while running an intensive task?

[Kroggen]

@Zando Bob @Flashie max read on temp is 58 when installing drivers from disc

What's the CPU usage at?

Hmmm. Can it make it through a benchmark? I'd like to see what the temps are a 100% CPU and GPU. 58C may be a little high for 50% usage, but then my CPU is a Pentium and barely makes heat.

[Kroggen]

@Zando Bob i cant even get to install the benchmark before it shuts down and i have to reinstall windows to make it boot again.

You're installing the latest Windows 10? It shouldn't cause you to have to reinstall Windows to get it to boot. 

[Kroggen]

yes the latest version downloaded directly from microsoft's homepage, 

@Zando Bob

[Kroggen]

@Zando Bob i dont know if this can help you, properly can. but if i pull out the gpu and put the hdmi in the mobo, i can boot just fine, i also just noticed that it gives me a VGA led error.

Hmmm. Is the 1060 plugged in correctly? It should need at least one 6 pin connection. 

[Kroggen]

@Zando Bob yes it needs one 6 pin, which it gets and and the 1060 is plugged in like it should be, i can also boot from it if i reinstall windows 10, but only oince and for 10 min at the max

The latest BIOS for that board is from April so it's plausible that it supports Kaby Lake. And yes, the VS series is not very good.

Clearly you have yet to see a Dell L322X XPS 13 with a Core i7
 

Gets to about 90 under load on a table with average weather...

@STRMfrmXMN @Zando Bob but no idea on how to make it work? im still going towards the gpu, as i can start it with the intergrated graphics

Can you run everything just fine with the iGPU? Or does it crash as well? If it's stable, then RMA the dGPU.
