Overwatch just got out and when playing with my friends my pc end up freezing it a take a while till it happen but it still happens.Before that I was playing league of legends and I think this occurs twice.I have two monitor(one of them is a 46p samsung tv pluged by Hdmi),most of the time when I turn on my computer without my tv being on I loose control of my tv(cannot really explain but I would say huge pixel problem with a big buzz sound and my tv keep turning on and off till I unplug the Hdmi)with this I'm starting to think that my GPU is in fault pls help I want to play overwatch without letting down my teammate...also when I loose control of my tv the primary monitor is not affected at all.My sister told me that when She was watching her show my computer also froze with a buzz sound if that help .

I had an XFX DD 7950 and when it got too hot, or overclocked too high and stressed, it would freeze the PC with a weird 'buzzing' sound. No clue if it's the same problem.

If it is, you can try increasing the fan speed so it stays cooler, and/or downclocking the GPU a bit.

Keep an eye on your GPU temp. If it gets near 80°C while gaming awhile, adjust for more cooling and maybe lower GPU speed to help stabilize.

What are your temperatures?

What are your temperatures?

I will try to increase the fan speed, will probably take more time than expected since they changes the ways you are suppose to increase it with the new amd radeon setting (I'm more familliar to the old catalyst version)

Yes It was around 67- 81 not sure if it was going higher when freezing but when playing overwatch that was around there.Now my fan speed is at 75%, it was at 46 default I hope to see result. I will tell you if there any change.

What about CPU temps?

 

[ritchyboy]

Still freezing event after the change of my fanspeed and the temps didnt change too and cpu temps is about that http://puu.sh/pigdl/25d048651e.png(not playing)

Ok I've changes my gpu and the problemes is completely gone.My gpu is now a EVGA Geforce gtx 970(really nice gpu by the ways no complain so far) so not sure how to fix the issue but 100% gpu related problem. Having fan speed higher helped me for a while.
