CPU: AMD FX 9370 4.4 ghz
GPU: ASUS DirectCU 2 OC R9 290
PSU: AZZA Titan 1000 watt PSU
RAM: 8GB
Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard

Solution
check the temperature of both cpu and gpu while on full load. the heatsinks might be dirty or you have a broken fan or something. or not enough airflow inside the case




they are ok
