So i built a computer a few months ago and its had a few problems that nobody on here could solve, such as one time it froze completely and i had to manually restart it, and some other stuff.

Anyways:

Sometime when im in a game of league the screen will randomly flash white, for a frame, and at first i thought i was just blinking or something but no. also: this only happens when i play league.

So i was just in a league game and my whole screen started freaking the fuck out, i tried alt tabbing but my desktop was doing it too...i got a vid of it if anyone is curious:

i turned my computer off then on and it stopped, anyone with any ideas would be appreciated<3


PS:

*Graphics card: SAPPHIRE DUAL-X 100373L Radeon R9 280 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX

*Processor: Intel Core i5-4590 Haswell Quad-Core 3.3GHz LGA 1150 84W

*Power Supply: EVGA 500 B 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified 500W

*Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 1TB 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5"

well thats the thing, when i restarted my computer it stopped....i just wanna find out what it is so it doesnt happen again....
 


Well..there are many reasons for bad ram. If you got this problem right from the start when you built your PC you should return it and ask for a new one. But if it worked fine for a while then got bad, it could be heat, dust, power surge...and a load of other things.
