where is the Speccy report, you have only shown a screen shot.

in Speccy, click File > Publish Snapshot > Copy to Clipboard > Close.
now you can paste (Ctrl+V) that link into a post.

so you only get a black screen with No Video Signal after a few seconds/minutes of the fans spinning loudly?

http://speccy.piriform.com/results/YmNHx0jjoxotERZDj38xrS5 , yes is 2 seconds delay, first fans are spining fast, and black screen
 
assuming the two events are connected, high fan speed quickly followed by black screen, it is logical to guess that it is heat related.

remove the side cover off the tower and check for dust build-up.
blow out the chassis with an air-compressor if you have access to one (or those cans of compressed air), holding each fan still has you blow each area.
include the PSU and front grill.

you may even like to remove the NVidia card and make sure its fan blades are clean.

a soft bristled brush may also be used if it can reach into all the places dust can build up.

check the system and if it hasn't helped, i would then be replacing the thermal paste on the graphics card and CPU.

i did this 2 weeks ago, nothing
 
did the thermal paste look dried up under the CPU heat sink and GPU heat sink?

try running the rig with the cover off and a fan blowing into the guts of it.

does this only happen when playing those two games?

your BIOS is 6 years old, check the manufacturers web site for an update.
how old is the rig?

the thermal paste of the gpu was dried, and the cpu is cooling by a stock cooler, the paste under that cooler it was medium, and for the bios how i can check the updates, from their site?
 
it was by following Support > Drivers & Manuals > Category=Desktop > Series=Veriton > Model=X2632G
this is the link; https://www.acer.com/ac/en/AU/content/support-product/5836?b=1

expand Driver/Firmware and get P21.B4
may also be prudent to expand Driver and get the Chipset one as well.


Hmmm.... scratch that, I rechecked your Speccy log and see you already have the latest - would seem Acer hasn't released any updates for that mobo in years, which tells a story in itself really, they no longer care about supporting that mobo.

no, but I think it's not cooling because I also have a fan that beats the video card and I have a case with a pretty good airflow
 
to recap: you have changed the thermal paste, cleaned the fans of dust build up, improved airflow into the case and it still goes black on only two games?

have you tried unloading and reinstalling those two games?
are they fully patched?
what do they have in common but that other games don't have: Steam, Punk Buster, video settings, etc?

not only these games, it happens at Roblox, when i tried to alt+tab, but not allways
 
and it happened to only lose video signal, the fan was ok
