So for the pass couple of months out of nowhere this weird thing happens to my PC where playing certain games (FC4, Rise of the tomb raider) After a short session my monitors will go black and all the fans will kick into 100%. I have had my GFX card checked and returned and also been told to upgrade my power supply (which i have) The PC was actually sent back to PC specialist to be installed. Anyone got any ideas what it could be ?

Info:

Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Processor i7-4820K (3.7GHz) 10MB Cache

Motherboard ASUS® SABERTOOTH X79: SOCKET 2011, R.O.G

Memory (RAM) 8GB KINGSTON HYPER-X BEAST DUAL-DDR3 2133MHz X.M.P (1 x 8GB)

Graphics Card 3GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 780 Ti - 2 DVI, HDMI, DP - 3D Vision Ready

Power supply Changed from RM 650 to RM 850

Sounds like the Graphics Drivers crashed and restarted.
Best first course of action would be to goto Nvidias website and grab the latest drivers and do a fresh install of those.

I tend to be saying this a lot more recently, not sure if I'm just being lazy but...

id try a fresh installation of the OS, removes many places for an error to be hiding in your system. Do a clean installation of all driver etc then load a game with the known issue. Play it before installing anything else and see if the error is fixed, if not then it may be a hardware fault with the motherboard.

I've found a a bit of a temporary fix, If i use MSI afterburner and set the power level limit to 95% it takes longer for the problem to occur.
