hey there

so i i just build my pc 2 days ago and everything was fine. Then yesterday all of a sudden, when i was playing wow, it went into sleep mode and the fans on my gpu went to full speed. Also the sound became messed up, if you know what i mean when something crashes. Im not able to get it out of this sleep mode, unless i turn it off. I had the latest nvidia driver, but couldnt get the windows annivesary update.

Now when i boot the pc it sometimes happens right after the windows logo or when i just log in. Basically all the time.

My build is:
Gigabyte GA-H110M-DS2, Socket-1151
HyperX Fury DDR4 2133MHz 16GB
Samsung 750 EVO 250GB 2.5" SSD Bulk
Fractal Design Integra M 450W PSU
ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 6GB DUAL OC
Intel Core i5-6500 Skylake Processor

it's hard to say since you had it working good the two days. but try the drivers it doesnt hurt. you could also run a "whocrashed" app to see if you can pinpoint a driver or something

So i tried that and the problem still persists.
I also tried running my pc without the gpu and its completely gone. Note: the pc also runs perfectly with the card in safe mode.
Do you reckon its the drivers or the card itself?
