Game is crushing my PC.
First of all my specs are:
I bought the game on GOG recently. And over all it runs very smooth even with all settings maxed out (including ubersampling), but my problem is that this game keep crushing my PC. Once in a while during gameplay my rig would just halt into black screen and require a hard reset, nothing else works. The timescale for this is always different, sometimes I get about 30 mins of gameplay, other times I could be playing for hours. Sadly the outcome is always the same.
I didn't use any mods that came with the GOG version of the game.
Things I've already tried:
Please, is there anything else I can do? Or should I shelf it? I'm new to Witcher series and this is kinda dissapointing.
Is there any know fix to this?

Things I've already tried:
- Reinstalled the game on different HDDs/Drives numerous times.
- Turned off ubersampling, SSAO, VSYNC, nothing helped.
- Checked my Windows for errors with sfc /scannow command. In vain.
- Reinstalled my drivers repeatedly.
- Checked my temperatures and everything is ok there. (I have a Kulo heatsink which is water based)
