Hi! I was hoping someone could help me.
So, earlier today, while playing a game, i noticed that it started to freeze. Well, not exactly freeze, but (I`m sorry, I don`t know the word, English is not my first language). Like it freezes for couple of seconds, unfreezes and freezes again, but in continuously longer intervals until it froze completely. So I decided to try running Skyrim, and you know that smoke on loading screen? Well, it was completely white with some purple undertones. First I cleaned my components, ran Skyrim again and this time that smoke was black, so I couldn`t see the figure on loading screen.
I quit the game, run furmark and it ran for half an hour with no problems. I ran memtest86 and Haeven benchmark again with no problems and Windows memory test. Anyway, at one point game said something like my gpu doesn`t support Directx 11. Now loading screens are fine, but world map looks like its shaking. Temperature is fine on both gpu and cpu, the fan is working... I have no idea.
Please help! And thanks in advance.

Can you post the requested PSU details for us please.

 

Got to ask this, is your OS from a legitimate source? I ask as Windows 7 Ultimate is not normally used with such an entry level/minimum spec computer.
