Computer blackout?

[Jack Guinea]

Hi there i recently installed Sniper Elite V2 and i have noticed that since i have i have been getting these problems. What will happen is that i play the game for about 30-40 minutes then all my screens go black and say no signal then i end up having to restart my computer. Is it Sniper Elite that is causing it or is it something else? and how can i fix it?

It sounds more like a GPU issue or a heat issue, but Id say GPU myself.

What are you comp specs?

All Drivers fully updated?
Have you tried opening and checking to see if the GPU is in correctly.

Might be worth monitoring GPU temps with something like GPU-Z.

Hi there i just thought i would let you know that it was because my side fan was never plugged in. I must look like an absolute idiot but well that was what it was and because it wasn't plugged in my computer was overheating.
