OVer the last 2 days I have had my computer crash 5 minutes into a game or netflix. I have three screens and one goes grey, white and black. and there is a static noise that is looped.

Is this a driver issue (As i've seen some places say) or gpu/storage issue

I've never had this before (computer was built 2 years ago).

Make sure your video drivers are up to date.

This could also be a heat and/or power issue. Another possibility is a memory problem.

What are the specs for this rig?

Are you overclocking anything (CPU, GPU, memory)?

What are your idle and loaded operating temperatures?

Have you installed/updated/upgraded anything in the last couple of days?

Video drivers: clean install twice, going to use driver sweeper next time i try.
PSU: I have an AX860i from corsair.
SPECS:https://gyazo.com/fe7c0996bf278d0131ef5c70988a8037 these temps are for slightly above idle usage. Dont want to risk load but i checked it before it crashed last time and I had normal temps for load which were (max 60c for video cards, usuall 50ish. always under 50C for CPU)
OVERCLOCKS: Only thing that is overclocked is the ram as the default for any is 1333mhz. Ram is 1866mhz.
UPDATE/UPGRADE: no major software, no hardware upgrades for a few months.
SLI: Disabled till i can stop updating my drivers.
