Hi guyz

Its been a long time but I've had no problems so far. Until today that is, I was playing Bad Company 2 all maxed out and everything with my GTX560 when suddenly there was enormous lag I waited for it to pass I thought virus scan just started or something...nope screen suddenly went dark and displayed VGA not detected I could still hear shots being fired and ppl talking. I got scared and forced shut down. So far I've not had any such problems with my GPU. I got Metro 2033 overclocked from the standard 830MHz to 950MHz for less then 20 minutes checked it out all maxed out, and went back down to my normal 880MHz clock speed then I continued playing Metro 2033 for about 2 or 3 hours! No problems. Next day (today) I started up Bad Company 2 not even 1 full hour ingame and I get black screen! After force shut down and reboot, GPU is acting normal again with the old 880MHz overclock. I have pushed my GPU harder before normally it just flickers and resets back to normal 830MHz clock and gives me a windows error, this time I didn't get anything not even error message after reboot what is going on?! NOW it just killed the game and made me freak out so... Does anyone know what this means, is my GPU dying is my PSU dying (CX600W Corsair PSU)? I get temperatures around 70C-75C with heavy games such as Metro 2033 & BC2 fans auto at 50%-60%, GPU idels at 34C-35C & 20% fan speed on a good day, hot day idels around 36C-39C 22% fan.

Any help with this please, if anyone else has experienced anything similar with a GTX 560 (Asus)

[Edit]

There was no problem with the graphics card I tried a brand new GTX 460 (my friend's new GPU) same thing happened. Then I decided to play something else instead. Played Metro 2033 for about 3 hours and left it running for an extra hour after that no problems, no crashes just a really hot GPU at 70C. Looking for Bad Company 2 fixes atm, if anyone knows how to quick fix this let me know please.
