Hello

My PC Specs which I bought a week ago: (Nothing is Overclocked)
Asus Maximus V GENE
Radeon HD 7850 2GB
RAM G.Skill 8GB 1600Mhz
Intel i5 3570k
PSU Cooler Master Thunder 600W

Today, I was playing a game, usually I have around 60-75 FPS in it but as I joined a new map at a place my FPS dropped to 15 as I continued to stay there to play, my PC suddenly hanged and showed a blue screen and then I quickly closed my PC.

So, after that I started my PC in a bit and I was getting freezed on Asus Bios Logo, tried another time and pressed DEL to go to Bios, it went there but again hanged in a sec. I tried again after 10-15 mins and it got ahead and went to blinking cursor on top left.

After 30mins, I restarted again and it freezed at BIOS Logo again I pressed the restart button and somehow it started, I haven't tried doing anything else with my PC and not yet did a restart again.

So, please guide me if I shut down my PC again and turn on will that happen again? Why did this all happen ? Is everything perfect now or do I need to worry about something?

Thanks

You need to worry. Having it freeze on the BIOS or POST screen (when it worked fine before) can indicate a serious problem.

Seeing that your FPS tanked for a while before the more serious problems occurred might indicate a cooling issue, as your CPU (and maybe GPU) will clock themselves down if overheating. Overheating can also cause the other problems (BSOD, freezing on BIOS).

I would start with checking to see if the CPU and GPU fans are still spinning (maybe even case fans). If all is good, check the CPU temperature in BIOS (might indicate a mounting problem with cooler even if fan spinning).
