Posted May 31, 2014 Hi all All of a sudden when playing games my pc now resets itself without a bsod, just switches off and immediately reboots. Have had the system for around 6 months and no problems till now. Ideas? I4770 MSI GTX780TI Corsair GS700 psu MSI G43 gaming Mobo I've heard could be power supply amongst other things.. Really hope it's not the Gpu. Help needed please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 31, 2014 Typically if a thermal shutdown, it will stay off for at least a few minutes. Load up HWMonitor and keep an eye on the temps. If they look ok, then most likely a bad PSU or the power controller on your mobo is flaky. You will need another PSU of course to test.

Posted May 31, 2014 CPU Temps mainly, above 90 Degrees is where you'll run into thermal problems... aaaaand gpu If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough it will be believed. -Adolf Hitler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 31, 2014 Is it overclocked? It could be your temperatures so start monitoring them, could be some windows conflict but that is less likely because it only BSOD's under pressure as you described it, power supply may be also at fault and ram sticks.

Posted June 1, 2014 Author System isn't overclocked at all.. Others I know suggest it could be a weak 12v rail.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 1, 2014 Author HwMonitor seems pretty normal as far as temps go.. 64 degrees on peak load on the Gpu and around 44 at most on the cpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
