    Computer/ Screen freezing

    As i mentioned before i flashed my RX480 Strix into RX580 Strix.
    Since a couple days ago i have been having a screen freezing while i'm playing, mostly GTA V.
    What really happens is: during a long gameplay about 1 hour or so my screen freezes, and after 30 seconds my computer just restarts by itself and i receive a BIOS message noticing me that there is no ''Bootable disk''.
    If i restart my computer i keep getting this error as long as i still try to reset.
    This thing gets solved if i turn off my pc in the power button and press it again to turn it on. By doing this, the computer just boots flawlessly and as it should normal behave.
    My point is: is this a GPU problem caused by the flash i made around March 2017, is it a bad or not enough PSU ( it has 40A in the 12V rail ), is this it a bad HDD ( i already did hard stress HDD tests and they were fine ) or is my motherboard faulty?
    Can you help?
    And sorry for this long post.

    Computer/ Screen freezing

    Just flash it back to the original Bios.
    And just overclock the card manually.
    No real benefit from 580 bios imo.
