Hi. I built my pc in July and i have had nothing but issues since. I finally have a system that posts, and does not blue screen. Anyway here is the issue, games keep crashing, but not all the ones i have. I run GTA V at high settings, World of planes, World of tanks, wolfenstein 2, and PUBG all fine at high-ultra settings 60fps. But my other games like Heroes and Generals (not a gpu heavy game) Warthunder minecraft and other small indi games crash. The weird part is they dont studder, they will work fine for a minute or two then boom, DXGI errors, crashing,freezing ect. My 1060 6GB worked fine in my old fx system i have no idea why I am having issues with my new one.
SPECS
GTX 1060 6GB (GIGABYTE Windforce edition)
ryzen 1600
8GB ddr4 3000mhz ram (running at 2133 bc ryzen does not like 3000mhz )
EVGA 700B Bronze 700w power supply
MSI B350 tomohawk
What I have done:
Resetting windows to factory default 2x (using built in wipe my files)
Using all the latest and older drivers
Bring it to a local repair shop: (im out of the return policy period sadly)

When you are stress testing you should set all the fans to their max RPM, otherwise you are risking hardware thermal damage. Have you checked the RAM with memtest. 2133 seems low for your system and it will heart performance. You need to get to 2666 at least.

Are those games updated to their latest versions? Have you tried to test the GPU on another PCIe slot? Also it doesn't hurt playing with various GPU setting in the UEFI/BIOS. Sometimes a strange setting could hurt GPU stability. In that manner you should also test the various GPU driver settings and the windows power settings.

Finally it seems that you may have to test those specific games with another GPU. It will give you a lot of info and help you isolate the part(s) that are...


My motherboard bios is the latest, the psu is not new. I used the psu along with my gpu and hard drive from my old pc. Where they all worked fine. temps are fine with under max load 73c on gpu and 84c on cpu
 
Yes, this is with the stock cooler under a stress test load with the silent fan curve.

If nothing changes then the GPU is fine and you need to concentrate on other parts of your system. But if those issues can't be reproduced with another GPU, then you could be dealing with hardware damage (GPU), software (drivers, OS) or power related issues (PSU).
