Windows 10: Why is my computer slowing down and crashing

My computer runs normally on start-up but after about 10 minutes begins to slow down, freezes and goes to a blue screen saying there was a problem and the system Is restarting. When I turn the computer back on it's super slow again. I wait an hour and come back and it's normal speed and slows down again. I thought it was over heating but I took it apart and all the fans are working and I cleaned it up. Right around the time this began to happen my son accidentally unplugged the computer. I also had just installed mathblaster from the internet. I have since uninstalled mathblaster and all

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?
