Help with my New Titan build - crashes to desktop

Finally got my new watercool build up and running (as per sig) and all is fine except some games wont work at all and just crash before the menu loads.

So far I get the same useless generic windows 10 error message about the program has stopped responding and the program crashes on Timespy benchmark, Mordor and BF1

Now I can run all the other futuremark benches fine with no issues. I can run furmark for an hour.

I did think that perhaps my overclock might not be stable so put everything back to default last night and still got the same errors.

On timespy it crashes out when the loading bar is about a third along. Mordor crashes out after the splash screen loads up but before the menu. BF1 crashes before the menu as well.

Running the latest drivers.

Any ideas what's going wrong please?

Player Tomb raider for 2 hrs last night no issue. There are lots of other games which play fine too.
 
Might need a clean install, hadn't done it yet. Used DDU to remove AM|D stuff,.

All games verify okay with steam, tried that already.

I just can't figure out the common factor between the games which don't work.
 
I did a full back up before i dismantled my old pc, you can never be too safe ;)

Was hoping to avoid the clean install. Oh well, I have a super fast 951 so it shouldn't be that awful.
 
I would try notching down your CPU Overclock. I assumed my CPU OC was fully stable and passed synthetics and what not fine, but had issues with Timespy crashing and GTA 5 in particular while the rest of my library was mostly fine. could be worth trying to lower the OC a notch and seeing if the issues persist.

Tried that. Put gpu and cpu both back to stock and same issue. Suspect it just needs a reinstall of windows.

Afterall I have swapped my motherboard,ram and gpu in one go! I was just being lazy ;)
 
Well that will teach me to be lazy, fresh windows install and all is good :)

Just got to reinstall about 50 programs now :(
