It's happened twice now -- a gray-ish screen for about 10 seconds, and then it restarted. The "Windows did not properly shut down" prompt came up, and I resumed normally. It just randomly happened both times. What does this sound like to you? A problem with heat, a problem with the graphics card, what? CPU: AMD FX 8120 Zambezi 8-CORE 3.1 GHz Motherboard: ASRock 980DE3/U3S3 PSU: RAIDMAX Blackstone Series RX-700AC 700 W GPU: Asus Radeon HD 7770 2GB (CPUTIN is at 40 C via HWMonitor. That's good right?)
Well, is it happening any other time or no? If not, perhaps try running the game in compatibility mode. .....though, as a game thats just out I would expect it to run fine on a win7/win8 machine. Might also try checking the game integrity from the properties menu in Steam.

Yeah it's a memory problem, I had it with my 5870. You can fix it by forcing your card to run at 3D memory clocks. Or just RMA it.

I think I read that it was actually a design issue with the card's memory that the drivers sometimes failed to circumvent (with the 5870 anyways). Well XFX accepted mine for RMA. XFX suck though and wouldn't replace it, they just gave me £100 off one of their other cards. I'll never buy XFX again.
