Hi, i built my pc in January and it's been fine until now, but around a week ago i was playing Gmod and the game flickered a few times, then went black and buzzed continuously. I wasn't able to click anything so i had to reboot.
Earlier today it happened at the end of a game of dota, so i updated my Catalyst driver. I played a full game of dota afterwards with no problems, and then an hour or two later i played farcry3 and it did the same flickery thing about 5-10mins in.
In the more recent events, a notification has popped up in the bottom right saying a short message along the lines of 'AMD has had a problem and has successfully recovered' or something like that, but it's hard to read properly when its flickering
Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening and how I could solve it? Tonight i am going to run a full antivirus scan, and i've heard overheating can do this, but i'm not sure how I'd know if thats the case and how i'd sort it as i have 5 case fans and cable management is difficult in my case.
My build: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/b/ME4
Does anyone have any smart ideas?
Thanks everyone
