Hey guys, I am stumped trying to figure out what is causing my NUC to crash. It typically crashes between 10 minutes to 1 hour of playing games or watching Netflix. Some games crash every time, and some games don't ever crash. I also use the NUC with XBMC software, which runs fine. Does anyone know what is causing these issues or how to fix them? Please see my details below, thanks.
