Hi all,

My gaming PC has recently started freezing/crashing while playing games. There's no input from anything else once the PC freezes and the only solution is to reboot the PC using the PC power button.

Weirdly, this only started while playing Amazon's New World.

I've linked a paste bin of my DxDiag if that helps? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Just an update. After looking inside my rig last night I saw it was caked in dust, especially around the graphics card, its fan and its heat sink. I cleaned this all out, and rebooted and my PC was still freezing after a few minutes of playing games.

I ran a GPU stress test and whenever the GPU temps were hitting around 70 degrees celsius thats when my PC became unresponsive.

I'm assuming its graphics card related, any decent fixes for this other than getting a new graphics card?
