ok so this computer is about a week old i just built it. the first few days everything was fine, now the last 2 days when im playing a game (H1Z1 or CG:GO) my game randomly crashes and it says "AMD Catalyst has stopped working" after that when i try to re-launch the game the computer crashes and i get the blue screen . And when i reboot everything seems to be fine and i can play the games again. it only happens once then when i restart my computer i can get right back on the games and start playing again with no issues. Also i do have the newest drivers installed. please help me thanks.
