Random BSODs giving different codes, games freezing
I just built a new gaming HTPC two months ago and I really want to love it, but I've had some issues with it that have made me feel sour. One, I keep getting random BSODs and the error codes aren't consistent. Two, games freeze and cause my entire computer to reboot.
I put this computer together as an HTPC primarily; maybe I just need to give up on the gaming part of it and stick with my Xbox for gaming. I don't know. My GPU is a Galaxy GeForce 560 Ti, which should be a great card but I can't get it to play for more than half an hour of any game without it freezing up, which forces my whole PC to reboot. I think it might be overheating, which is really unfortunate but it would make sense considering the diminutive size of the Silverstone GD05 case that it's in, which wouldn't allow the best airflow.
I'm hoping someone will take a look at the attached report and share thoughts on what the problems could be. I'm assuming that the BSOD and GPU problems aren't related, but they could be for all I know. Thanks in advance.
