I’ve been having a problem with crashing to desktop in games after 10-15 minutes of play. I recently rebuilt my rig with a new motherboard and CPU, and it has been happening ever since. I did a fresh windows install, so I don’t think it is driver issues. After running GPU-Z it looks like everything is getting pushed a bit too hard, but I’m not overclocking anything. Could it be the power supply? It’s less than three years old, but maybe the new motherboard and CPU require an upgraded power supply. Is 550W no longer enough? Any ideas?

Here is a screenshot of GPU-Z right before a crash:
