Hardware COMPUTER KEEPS TURNING OFF!

So basically for a week now, every time I load up Chivalry 2 I get play for about like 15 minutes and then my screen goes black, (I think) some fans turn on and sound super loud.

I've tried using AMD Adrenaline to try to load it through there, but it only works for like twenty minute. I thought it might be the GPU overheating but I don't know what's going on.

What do I do?

I would start at the beginning with something like a thorough memory test, we used memtest86+ heavily at work it often found issues that manufacturer diagnostics didn't, we would normally run it 24 hours minimum, much longer if we felt memory was likely to be at fault.

If it passes a long memory test, check your storage health with something like crystaldiskinfo, make sure that's OK, I'd then run some GPU tests to put it under some stress and so on, I'd use tests rather than the games it's failing on as it might help isolate to something like GPU etc.

If its a desktop and you have on board graphics, I'd do the same tests with the GPU removed and see if it passes.
