[SOLVED] GPU Crashing

[BIackJesus]

Hi, I recently bought a 1070 founder edition and in the first days, it work perfectly. Then, it started crashing in game. As soon that I started a game for example R6 it crash. I try a little overcloak but i put it back to normal. I want to know how to prevent crash

My specs:
CPU:I7 3770
GPU:1070 founders edition
Mobo:Intel dh61ww
Ram: 12gb ddr3

When a video card causes a computer to crash it is often for 1 of 3 reasons ... Heat, Power, or Driver.

1. Overheating ... a pretty common issue, especially with an older video card (dust in the fins) or with overclocking. Usually it takes time for the heat to build up, so if it is crashing the second you start a game, that seems wrong (unless you overclock too much).
2. Power ... if your PSU (you didn't list what you have) can't put out enough power to the GPU it will crash. Crashing right when a game starts would line up with this.
3. Driver ... if you have the wrong driver or the software has been corrupted it can cause a crash. This is easiest to fix ... just reinstall the driver.

BTW ... you never described the crash ... crash to desktop, bluescreen, blackscreen, restart, etc
