Hi. First time pc builder here... While I thought hey I could save a little money and have a little fun I could build my own gaming pc. Did a little homework and picked up all my components. Trouble is I can't run any games T_T. I have already exchanged the motherboard once, the graphics card and the ssd for new ones. I go to run a game... And I get the error "game has stopped working" a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." If it doesn't do that the whole system freezes forcing me to hard power down. I have even gotten blue screen erros "Watchdog time out". It has been doing this to me for quite some time. It does it to me on ffxiv, shadows of mordor (which I have on steam) and elder scrolls online EVERYTIME! It doesn't not do it to me (at least rarely) on South Park stick of truth, and fable anniversary which are both on steam. I have wiped and reinstalled windows a few times. When I wipe it, they work for a few days, then it starts all over again.. No idea whats going on... i have done ALL the windows updates, all graphic card updates via geforece experience. I have run the cpu diagnostic tool from intel, memtest for the ram, and CCcleaner. Nothing seems to be running too hot via via monitors of the gpu from the motherboard software, and the graphics card is not running hot via gpu monitotring software. I am able to surf the web and watch netflix, just cant seem to game T_T. Im in WAY over my head!
These are the componets that make up my pc
intel i7 6700k (Stock settings... has NEVER been OC)
hyper t4 cpu cooler
ballistic ddr4 ram 2x 8gb sticks 2400
asus z170-ar motherboard.
evga 750 G2 power supply
nvidia gtx 1060 strix OC version (tried in gaming mode as well as OC mode, doesnt matter)
WD 1tb blue slave Hard drive
intel ssd 540 240gb
I have checked the event viewer and have gotten these errors
