Windows 10: Computer Crashing

I have recently run into some issues. My computer would freeze up, and be unable to shut down. Upon trying to restart my system, my PC boots up, then shuts down again. Doesn't go into POST, no beep codes or anything. This happens for many times before I eventually give up.

After a few days, I decide to try my luck again, and it works! However, this uncertainty kills me. I can't be working with a PC that decides to die on me whenever it wants to. Asking for help.

My system parts are as follows:


GIGABYTE B250M-D3H

Intel Core i5 7500

Nvidia GeForce GTX 960

RAM 2 x 4GB Corsair 2666mhz

Seasonic 550w PSU

Samsung evo 960 256GB

hitachi hds72101 1TB

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

 

all games crash!

ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.

 

Friends computer crashing

Hello, my friends computer keeps crashing when ever he tries to play SC2 ( or anything that involves extensive videocard use) , I think he has a GT280X. I'm not sure if its a heat issue, or damage to the card, or what. Any suggestions on what could be the problem?
