sounds like overheating, ive played that game for many hours and have beaten it without any issues, also with a 570. i would suggest installing something like afterburner, then crank up your fan to like 60% or so and play again, if its a heat issue this should clear it up. leaving you the task of figuring out why it's running hot.

edit: (after thought) maybe bad air flow in the case.

fixed for now, i think maybe your case is air restrictive. you shouldn't have to push the fan speed up, is what i'm getting at, now you need to address the overheating issue, why and what is causing it.

You could also buy a can of compress air & spray all the dust out of your case included , mobo , CPU , GC & PSU every 3-4 months

God damn... just lost my 1337 with this post :rolleyes:

How many fans in your case/what size? I have 3x 120mm fans and my 6950 is always getting to 75C, so I'm modding may case and putting 4 more in.
