I got a GTX 970 almost 2 weeks ago. Works great! Since then, I've had several hard PC crashes where it completely locks up and whatever sound was playing at the time becomes sustained until I cut power. Once it flashed a blue screen just before the power went off but it was just a flash. The only other thing I have changed since this started is a new CD drive... doesn't seem that it would be that.
What could be the issue? Temperature, power, connectors? How should I test it further. Crashed mostly during extended play sessions of Resident Evil Remake and Dying Light, so I know it's not the games.
Just to add some frustration, maybe it will bring you some Schadenfreude. I have done 3 knife only, no save runs this week on the PC version. Twice my PC crashed right at the end of the game, and the other time I died against the Tyrant. Also, last night I finished Chris on Hard mode with no saves, and my PC crashed during the credits before getting to save the cleared data or getting achievements. I guess that speaks to my love for this game but I just want to break something.
