Computer crashes at over 40 degrees celcius?

[Defender96]

I was playing csgo for about an hour, then I minimized it and after about 10 minutes my computer crashed and had a blue screen. Upon return i saw the cpu temp was over 40 degrees celcius.
Is it my i5 4690k going over 40 degrees celcius thats causing my computer to crash?
If it is, is it normal for my i5 4690k to crash at over 40 degrees celcius?

Then why is my computer crashing?

may not have been a cpu heat issue but when you min the game the video driver may have screwed up and keep the gpu fan from spining up and the gpu over heated.

Maybe, because I reused my old MSI AMD Radeon HD 5670 in my new build.

Hi,

The problem lies elsewhere.

boot in safe mode and if it's not crashing

1- goto bleepingcompute, download adwcleane and roguekiller.
If you are heavily infected, download and run combofix

if the computer crash, it might be the powersupply, you need to test that with a known working PSU.

BSOD can be cause by malware, hard drive problems, GPU or PSU failing

can you give us your computer full specs.
