I am not very educated in PC's but I know some things. Simplified explanations are appreciated. I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this.
Long story short my PC keeps freezing while playing certain games and I'm not sure if it is because it isn't powerful enough or maybe they need to be replaced. This has been happening for the longest time and now I'm starting to become fed up with it. I've been getting graphics card driver crash and recovers so that may be it. It freezes but the PC is still running and the only way to restart is to manually do it
Not to long ago I was playing Left for Dead 2 for about 7-10 mins when it froze. I had a HWMonitor on to check the temps and SystemCare to check the RAM usage and CPU usage.

Value Min Max
TMPIN0 - 67°C (152°F) 54°C (129°F) 69°C (156°F)

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti (Graphics Card)
37°C (98°F) 30°C (86°F) 44°C (111°F)
RAM (8.00): 35%
CPU: 19%
I honestly don't know what to do. I just want to find the cause and hopefully fix it. This is pretty much all the information I can give that I think is helpful. Any insight is appreciated!
