Possible overclocking or bad graphics card?
Within the past week, my PC started cutting off during one specific game. It initially started immediately after the game loaded, but now it happens randomly during the duration of the game, sometimes once, sometimes twice, sometimes never.
Things that don't make sense to me:
This occurs only during the game, which leads me to believe it's an overclocking issue or bad graphics card, but:
I've ran the same game on the same PC for over a year now with no similar issues until recently
There has been no significant changes to the game or to my PC
I have overclocked before and the PC rebooted to a screen telling me it had overclocked, it hasn't given me this error screen since
I run a few other games that are just as heavy with no issue, including IMVU
I can run Photoshop and SAI with very very large canvases without an issue, I've had cheaper PCs that have run into an issue handling this while still being able to run the game flawlessly
I can watch movies without an issue
What I've done so far:
Reinstalled the League of Legends client
Installed any available updates
Ran a GPU stress test (PC cut off immediately)
Things that definitely are not the issue:
Not overheating
Plenty of free space in memory
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 770
OS: Windows 10 Pro
