Upon attempting to start Star Citizen or World of Tanks NA, my monitors display nothing and the LED light signaling a graphics card connection loss flashes. After approximately ten seconds, my computer automatically restarts and returns to the login password screen. I repeat this process, and the issue persists. I have utilized Dell Support Assist, but it proved ineffective. My system is an Alienware Area 51 R2. Here are my specifications:

Windows 10 Home 64-bit
Intel Core i7 5820K @ 3.30GHz
16.0GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory
8192MB ATI Radeon RX 470 Graphics (Sapphire)
119GB SAMSUNG SSD PM871 2.5 7mm 128GB (SATA SSD)
1863GB TOSHIBA DT01ACA200 (SATA HDD)

Occurs with any game, or just these two titles? What troubleshooting steps have you taken? Have you attempted a fresh Windows installation? Have you experimented with alternative power supplies or graphics cards?
