Greetings dear reader,

I bought my First Gaming computer 3 years ago with a 

Cpu: Fx4300

Gpu: Amd R7 360OC

8gb of ram DDR3

Board: Gigabyte GA970A-DS3P

Standard Cooler (small one)

Power Supply: is a Corsair VS650

 

Now this was not good enough for me and a different reason you will read very very soon so 1 year ago i upgraded the PC with

Cpu: Fx8370 With a Wraith Cooler

Gpu: AMD Rx 470 4gb Strix

Same 8gb ram

Same GA 970A DS3P

Same Vs650 Power supply.

 

For as long as i have it. It tends to crash once every 2 weeks for absolutely no reason (Staring at my background kind of usage). So i decided to upgrade it because it was not quick enough and i thought the problem was related to my CPU or GPU.

But after i did this (upgrade) Which i was very proud of : D, it crashes nearly ever 3 hours while playing a specific game (WarThunder Which runs a very smooth 90fps average)

The crash is a sort of crash where the screen goes black and the in game sounds glitch and make a 0,3 second loop, the computer then completely locks up and will not recover from it. This Crash is completely random (so i don't got any footage of it) and forces me to hold down the power button and force it to turn off. Now since i really like playing War Thunder i am getting sick of my computer failing on me and i ask you, the very nice community of LinusTechTips to try and help me fix this problem..

My first thought is either thermals or power. Have you tried a different power supply? Also are you monitoring your temp before the crash?

Im sort of a noob in this, could you explain?

I had too many unwanted things running in the background as well as there being an issue with memory dedication to GTA V. I ended up having to format my computer to factory settings

Look for logs in the Event Viewer. Under Windows Logs then System you should be able to see what happened right before the crash.

Well i've dont that and could not find anything, but i will try it again as soon as it crashes.

I always check for unnecessary programs that are active in the background and close them so that can't be it. That Memory dedication sounds interesting.

It just crashed, i went to record the sound the computer is making and you can listen to it to get a more bright idea, (just put volume all the way down and progressively raise it until you can hear it. I also added the Event Viewer so you can view that if you want.
