Q: Computer crashes while using Safari with El Capitan

I installed El Capitan. When watching a video from Amazon Prime or playing Tankionline using Safari, the computer crashes. When it crashes, the screen has done several different things:
1) Turn completely white
2) Turn completely black

3) Turn completely blue

4) Screen flashes like a strobe light

 

When I restart, I do not automatically reopen all of the programs or tabs within Safari. I go about my business. Then, about 10 minutes later, it crashes.
I've also noticed that my computer is warmer than usual and slower than usual. I've had the same problem even if the only app I am using is Safari.

 

These are my computer specs:
