Solve : Need Help- Gaming Computer doesn't work right.?

Answer»

Hi, I bought a computer from IbuyPower with customized specs and the computer works pretty good- but I can only play games for a certain amount of time before I get a blue screen of death and my whole computer shuts down. This is really effecting me because I bought the computer for gaming, and it cost 2,500 USD, but I can't seem to run games for a long time before my computer shuts downs. Some games I can play longer than others. Guild Wars 2- I can play for about 10 minutes and my computer shuts downs. But Nether- I can play for 3 hours before it shuts down. Also changing the GRAPHICS from high to low gives me more time- but the end result is my computer always shuts down. I'm going to post my computers specs, can someone please help me figure out why I keep getting this blue screen of death? I would appreciate it a lot.
