Q:
Odd shut downs, black screen area
You forgot the most important. The heart! What’s your PSU?
A Corsair 500W, but it shouldn’t be the problem as i can run borderlands 2, etc with no problems.
It kinda sounds like your video card is overheating. Try downloading MSI afterburner and using the on screen display to figure out what temp your card is running at when your screen goes black.

Check this thread, and try the linked test please.
Still not working and again, every other game works fine, Borderlands 2, Battlefield 3, and World of Warcraft.
This worked fine a week ago, WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT NOW!!!
Anyone please? Any devs?
Please test your system stability with the post I linked before. Then you can know for sure if it’s a hardware or software problem.
Other games working fine, unfortunately, is no assurance of anything.
Okay I tested my system with Intelburn and CPUID, and I passed it. What could I try now?
Oh and I used the standard stress level
Take the card out, get a can of compressed air, clean the PCIE slot and the graphics card (the connectors) thoroughly. Then use a vacuum (without the floor attachment) and again clean it out.
None of this is working :[
