Hello PMC! I have some sad news, minecraft crashes my pc!

So before we get into detail, heres my pc stats.

AMD A8 3850 PROCESSOR (2.8 GHZ)
AMD RADEON 6670 GRAPHICS CARD (Not sure if its the integrated or Actual card l0l)
AMD RADEON 6550D GRAPHICS CARD (Not sure if its the integrated or Actual card l0l)
8gb Vengance ram

so my pc is decent enough to handle minecraft lol.
This problem didnt happen before i reformatted my pc. so idk why!
i Downloaded all new drivers, New Minecraft, I dont know why its happening! my pc is at like 30% CPU and 20% RAM when im on skype and playing minecraft, suddenly it crashes and my pc just freezes. i have to resort to holding the power button on my pc. :/
it also bluescreens sometimes aswell..

HELPPPP

Could be render distance on far, you need 64 bit java for far rendering. Adjust your settings.

Could also be your BIOS, try downloading a new one from your motherboard's site.

Some things you might want to do are checking for any driver updates you may have. Scan for virus's and such. Clean stuff like your registry, cookies, and temporary files. Make sure components like video card, ram, CPU, CPU cooler, hard drive, power connections, are properly installed. If your computer is dusty, clean it so it can stay cool.

CCleaner and Anti-MalwareBytes are a good start.

a "freeze" most of the time comes from heat issues
amd products are gernaly know for overheating if you are not carefull

or it could be a problem with your ram (damaged / heat)

CCleaner and Anti-MalwareBytes are a good start.

no most of the time those tools destory already working parts of your pc
if its not 100% broken dont assume it is and dont fix it

Sounds like a Java issue. Try uninstalling your java and install java 7
http://java.com/en/download/faq/why_upgrade.xml

This will most likely fix your issue. if not. post back

Did you install a fresh copy? uninstall all previous java installations, and install a fresh copy
