Then, that's it. I thought about over heating too, but as you said it doesn't go over 50° so that's not a problem either. Does this happen any other time? This might sound silly, but have you checked your cables?
Oh, and try a different resolution when you play the game see if it makes a difference.

Wow, 900w sounds like over kill but there's no problem there... :D
I'm actually running out of ideas. The only thing I can think of right now is that, one of those vgas might be faulty. so if you could try them separately or borrow a vga from a friend (or an old one you might have) and try those.
You may also want to ask your question on www.tomshardware.com/forum, it's a really good forum and you'll probably get your answer there.
Hope you work it out! :)

You might want to include your specs and hardware.

I had a similar problem with my old gtx 480s. They would work for a while and then quit sending a signal to the screen. Eventually it worsened and locked up the entire machine so I couldn't even remote connect to diagnose it. Basically, one of the cards died. If you have SLI try disabling one card and then the other. Other than that, look up your warranty or search for replacements.

there's a weird thing... it only does it with XCOM, all the other games works normally at full graphics and stuff

It's a feature, its to stop you from seeing the scary bits. But seriously, other than it overloading your power supply OR your UPS I can't think of anything, but I would look into software (drivers etc) since you seem to have covered everything else.

while i play XCOM: Enemy Unknown it takes like 20 mins of gameplay and then my screen switches off permanently, the only way to switch it back on is by restarting the computer. i tried changing graphics or reolution but nothing... can you help me?
