Frequent BSODs & crashes when playing games, or just internet browsing
Hi, recently my computer has been crashing or BSODing after 5-10 minutes of gameplay, on lots different titles (Planetside 2, Garry's Mod, Grand Theft Auto IV, theHunter, Red Orchestra 2). Planetside 2 and theHunter were never able to run correctly, but months and months ago I was able to play the rest without any problems. When playing less demanding games (Game Dev Tycoon), or just browsing the internet, these problems are very rare.
I am running:
I've tried uninstalling drivers, using Driver Sweeper, and reinstalling, but I don't think that helped. I've also flashed my BIOS to the most recent version, but again, I don't think that made a difference.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
