Hello. I just downloaded BF1 and started playing on medium settings and 90 frames approx. and everything was fine.
But after a while of playing I started experiencing frame drops and stuttering and then it completely freezes, Screen goes either grey or pink with vertical lines and I have to do a hard reboot to get it work again. it happened more than ten times now and it always does!
So I downloaded MSI Afterburner to check if it's a heat problem. the heat never went above 60C at all. But I noticed that sometimes the RAM usage goes up to 7800MB. I also did a memtest which gave me 20 errors.
Should I replace it? What exactly is causing this issue! Please help.

Specs:
AMD Radeon R9 270X "DRIVER IS UP TO DATE"
Intel i5-4590 @ 3.3GHz
ASRock Z97 Anniversary MOBO "BIOS UP TO DATE"
8GB RAM
600W PSU

I think you are putting to much faith in your low end power supply. Why don't you fix your ram since it has errors go from there

Yes if you have errors on the memory than I would replace it. Did this just start happening when you play bf1 ? What is the psu ?
