Hey guys, not sure if this is in the right thread or not, sorry if it's the wrong one.
Anyways, this started a few days after Overwatch open beta came out, midgame, my pc would just switch off. When I booted it up, it would give me an ASUS anti-surge message, this happened a bunch of times, only on Overwatch, never happened before so figured it might be a game issue so I turned off anti-surge in the bios (There hasn't been a power outtage or thunderstorm around me in months). Sometimes I can play the game fine for hours but then it would randomly black screen. I'll be able to hear all the sounds, like skype, the game sound, Spotify, Windows 10 popup sounds etc but can't do anything. Ctrl alt del won't work, windows key, nothing, I'm forced to reboot. I thought it might just be an overwatch beta issue, but now it's happening to me on other games too. I tried sfc scan in command prompt, did a gpu stress test for 3 hours and that was fine, GPU stayed consistently at 110 FPS and 65 degrees. I've never overclocked this GPU or CPU. Only thing I can think of maybe it's a my PSU being faulty?
GPU - GTX 970
CPU - Intel i5 6600K
PSU - Corsair CX750M
SSD - Samsung 840 evo 120GB
SSD 2 - Samsung 850 evo 500GB
Mobo - Asus Z170 (D3)
RAM - Hyperx fury 2x8GB
