Ever since I began playing Battlefield 4, I have began having many crashes. I just recently enabled BSOD so I can see what the error exactly was. However, I have no idea how to interpret these dumps. Here is a summary of my issue that I posted on another site to no avail:
Hey guys, I just purchased Battlefield 4. I had similar issues like this when playing the beta a few weeks ago, but no such issues during BF3.
I had been playing for a few hours and then all of the sudden everything crashed. The PC seems to still but running (fans are running loud, probably max), but my monitors lost signal, and sound and mouse/keyboard input went out. Right after the crash, the computer reboots itself. However, the fans are still running at max and the monitors aren't getting any input. Sound and keyboard/mouse does work after the reboot. With the monitors not working, I just have to hard turn the computer off and then back on to fix it. Ever since it first happened, it has been happening constantly about 10 minutes after being into a game.
This was happening a few weeks ago as well while playing the BF4 beta. I stopped playing the beta, however the issue continued happening. The PC would crash outside of the game even while just browsing the internet. I rolled back to before I installed the BF4 beta and opened up the case and reset everything. The issue seemed to be fixed at that point. Now that I have installed the retail copy of the game, it is happening again. The computer is now crashing about every 15 minutes.
As far as temps go, they seem pretty normal while idle. CPU at 35 C and GPU idling at 55 C (might be a bit high). My computer just crashed about an hour ago while doing nothing. All that was running was spotify. I don't think it would be a temperature issue if it is crashing while idle. I noticed that right after a crash, the GPU fans run extremely loud, probably at max. I woke up to this happening at around 6AM this morning. After this happens, all input and output (monitors, keyboard, mouse), but there still seems to be power coming in since all the LED lights and my fans are still on. Does this sound like a GPU issue to you? I would much rather have to replace the video card than a motherboard.
I played a couple BF4 matches last night to check temps at load. Here are the temps from CPUID (see the max column):

The GPU temp does seem very high, but I don't know if that would be enough to warrant the whole machine crashing.
This is a pretty scary issue, hope someone can give me some kind of input as to what is going on. Sorry if I gave too much info, just trying to get the issue across.
Here are my specs:
OS: Windows 8 64-bit
Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30 GHz w/ Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Memory: 8GB RAM
GPU: GeForce GTX 570 running latest 331.65 drivers
Power Supply: Corsair GS700
