I have been having this problem for awhile now, so what would happen is while playing a game (league of legends) about 6-10min in and the screen would go completely black, after that what ever sound was playing it starts to loop. After a little bit, the computer would just restart and open back up. I have checked temperatures and found GPU: around 60-70 degrees, while the CPU: is around 50s.
My setup:
CPU: Intel i5 4690k @ stock (with hyper 212 evo cooler)
GPU: Sapphire r9 290 tri-x oc edition
PSU: Silverstone strider plus silver edition 850W
the problem started long ago when i overclocked, and got a black screen than just rebooted and kept getting black screens, so i had just restored to a couples days back and the computer was fine. But every time i try to update the amd driver it would black screen when i played a game for 6-10min again.
So i stayed on the older version for a couple of months untill now, where i got another error and got a blue screen instead saying "thread stuck in device driver" and after i reboot i would get a weird colored screen so what i did was deleted everything, reformatted the memory and reinstalled fresh windows. The pc turned back on fine and all, i installed all drivers thinking that the problem had been fixed since i had deleted everything and basically started fresh. But i jumpted into league and 6 min later, black screen, sound loop, restart.
another thing too is my psu was making a ticking noise while i had two computers turned on at the same time connected into the wall next to one another. https://tse2.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.Md7a1e29b1add2d298262c462bca047d7H0&pid=15.1
like in the picture, one computer cord on top and another on bottom, and i noticed ticking noise coming from the psu, i turned off other computer and the sound stopped.
Another thing about my psu is it tends to make a chirping noise after playing games for about 3-10 hrs.
so a summry, problem started after a little overclock, but was fine after restoring and worked normally for awhile. I reformatted pc and reinstalled windows and still face same problems. Temps seem fine.
Sorry for the long story but i want to get the whole story out. Thank you for your time. Please help.
