The GPU temps were abnormally high. Bad Cooling may be the issue.

bad cooling in my case or faulty gpu fans?
Btw: Ive had my worrys with this power supply , are there anythings pointing to that as an issue?

Keep always clean\cooling everything inside the case.Use blower or air spray can.

You have a 500W.500W is the minimum for your system.

So,better stronger psu=better unfaltering system.

yeah planning to upgrade the psu- but do you think that could be the root of the problem?
btw- ive been running prime95 and cpu temps are lingering 66-69 is that an indication of a cooling problem?

Not very high temperatures,dont forget,prime stress the hardware.

The worst thing\enemy for hardware are high temperatures.

Keep always clean and cool your system case.

yeah , i have recently cleaned my case out.

do you think the issue could be drivers? resolved with a re-install of windows?
Because it seems to me that after a clean driver install , i can play games on extreme settings for a long time , compared to normally where it would crash within 5 seconds of starting the game.
