    GPU shutting down in the middle of gaming

    Thanks guys for all the help, I took apart the GPU, blew it clean, reapplied thermal paste, seems ok now. Managed to play Prey at maxed out settings without any issues. Sorry for taking so long to reply, the thermal paste took a while to arrive.

    GPU shutting down in the middle of gaming

    I have an AMD RX580 with 8GB of RAM. After I cleaned the GPU with a can of compressed air, the GPU shuts down during moments of intense gaming, games like Burnout Paradise Remastered or HOMM3 will run fine forever, or at least as long as I want to game. But something newer/intense like Prey...
