Games causing PC to crash.

[rockymaster]

While playing games, my screen will randomly start to tear, and change colors.
Sometimes it doesn't even do that it'll just force a restart.
My issue seems to be mainly happening while playing "Mechwarrior Online" but it also happens less frequently on CS:GO.

I've tried swapping out my GPU, PSU, and HDD to no avail.
I've got one CBS log that "Bluescreenview" could find. (Can upload if needed)

Spec's
CPU - AMD Phenom II x6 1045t
GPU - EVGA GTX 650TI SSC
Mobo - ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0
Ram - 8gb Crucial Ballistix Sport
PSU - Corsair CX750
HDD - WD Blue WD10EZEX 1TB HDD

Hope you find a fix for this, I'm stumped.

Temps? Run Prime95, and tell me the temps

My temp maxed out at about 77 staying between 73-75 usually

What are you using for temp monitoring?

What are you using for temp monitoring?

A program called "Core Temp" my Asus AI Suite thats from my motherboard seems to be off usually about 10c higher.

Use AMD Overdrive

Use AMD Overdrive

Seems to be showing the same temp's this is after one hour of testing each time.

Are you using the Thermal Margin option?

Look for that. Stress test the CPU, if the numbers go red, it means its overheating

 

[rockymaster]

Yeah I had core temp open, and the thermal margin on my cpu should be 71c and both of them showed it going over.

When you looked on the thermal margin page, did any numbers go red?

When you looked on the thermal margin page, did any numbers go red?

After about 5 minutes of testing AMD Overdrive has all cores in the red at about -1.5c

a negative number means its overheating. Let me check some more, and i will come back and confirm

would it overheating cause screentearing?
