When i use Max Settings and MacGruber Post Processing plugin my monitors go blank after about 15 minuteas of using. Like they were turned off. Only pc restart helps.
 
That sounds like a hardware issue. Most likely your GPU is overheating and shuts down after a few minutes of the stress at max settings.

There's a program called GPU-Z that can help with this. It graphs the data from sensors on the gpu card. You can watch the levels climb till the computer goes blank. Also try cleaning the fans.

Yeah, yeah I know. It look like on max settings and with macgruber posprocessing my GPU temp goes up to 80 degrees and max point was shown about 102 (not sure what this means).

My GPU isn't the latest, but I can run a scene with post and max with no problem. My GPU hit about 83 and the hot spot was about 93. My GPU fan speed went up to over 2400 RPM. What was your fan speed? It might also be the CPU. Anytime something hits a thermal shutdown, you might not see the peak before it does that. I still say clean all the fans and heat sinks.
