I'm having the same problem with you I think it might be the power supply, I've had two of the corsair cx series the first one died after about 2 years of use and now I think this replacement one is dying with the same problems presented here

update i got the pc to reinstall windows 8.1 via flashdrive and found out from my bios/board explorer that one of my rams wasnt working so i took it out and everyhting seemed to be fine but then again when installing my drivers it went black and rebooted its rebooted like 3 times now

 

[Calvinb81]

Pretty sure it is your PSU giving up mine is doing the same. Random vertical black/coloured lines at random times but much more common during intensive games. It also fails to boot up properly after the problem until it randomly decides it wants to turn back on when I restart it over and over

 

[mlp353]

Ok yeah that sounds like mine except i cant even get into a game I open steam and teamspeak and it turns off

 

[mlp353]

even if the psu is the case what explains one of my ram sticks not getting picked up?

I can actually do quite a lot with mine it's just when I start to push it a little more it tends to crash, but it has happened before I attempted to play any games. Other times though I've managed to play 20-30 mins of games before it happened, strange.

Hi just an update I got a new power supply and the problem did not go away.

Looking at the hardware you have,did you overclock the cpu?

Yeah to 4.3 ghz for 3 years, I tested my system it seems my mobo is the problem as it is no longer booting up properly even without my gpu. Ordered an Asus z97-p and a i5 4690k, so either way If my gpu is causing it my motherboard is dead too and it needed replacing so we will see

 

[Vic 40]

Okay,let us kow how the new parts work.

Will do chap

Fairly certain it was motherboard issues effecting my gpu however seeing as it works 100% perfectly until the screen goes blank, then when I used to be able to get the PC to boot again after the problem it was fine after that.
