Is the problem still present: No
Actions: I took out the GPU, removed the PC powercord. Inserted the powercord back in and turned on the pc without the gpu in place. I cleaned the dusty fan of the gpu and inserted back in to the slot. Turned on the pc and the problem hasnt occured again for 2 weeks.
PS: ACTIONS ARE NOT SOLUTIONS, they are simply the given action taken. If I had just turned off the pc and turned it on again the problem could have been gone, but its nice to know what people have done and if there are any common factors among those who have solved the issue or temporarily put the problem "to sleep".
