unplug and plug them back in. They might just not be sitting well.

Having issues with a Corsair AIO? Possible fix here:

Spoiler

Are you getting weird fan behavior, speed fluctuations, and/or other issues with Link?

Are you running AIDA64, HWinfo, CAM, or HWmonitor? (ASUS suite & other monitoring software often have the same issue.)

Corsair Link has problems with some monitoring software so you may have to change some settings to get them to work smoothly.

-For AIDA64: First make sure you have the newest update installed, then, go to Preferences>Stability and make sure the "Corsair Link sensor support" box is checked and make sure the "Asetek LC sensor support" box is UNchecked.

-For HWinfo: manually disable all monitoring of the AIO sensors/components.

-For others: Disable any monitoring of Corsair AIO sensors.

That should fix the fan issue for some Corsair AIOs (H80i GT/v2, H110i GTX/H115i, H100i GTX and others made by Asetek). The problem is bad coding in Link that fights for AIO control with other programs. You can test if this worked by setting the fan speed in Link to 100%, if it doesn't fluctuate you are set and can change the curve to whatever. If that doesn't work or you're still having other issues then you probably still have a monitoring software interfering with the AIO/Link communications, find what it is and disable it.

I remember having a similar problem on a friends pc years back.  My memory is a bit fuzzy, but that particular motherboard has a really crappy VRM design and wasn't able to provide enough voltage with the CPU under intense load.  However, that was only a guess as the problem went away after we bought a new motherboard (Asus, i think).  How often are putting you cpu under a heavy load? My theory would make sense, but I sincerely doubt your CPU has never been above %50 usage prior to you playing this game.  If @pyrojoe34 theory doesn't pan out, i would research the VRM problems on your motherboard.   

Yes, you are right i don't usually put my cpu under heavy load except when i started playing watch dogs 1 , 2 days earlier

I have checked my cables but i don't see the logic behind reseating them.

 

i will go now but please keep posting your suggestions!!

I will check them tomorrow!!

Actually its 12 midnight and i have school tomorrow

but I will perform the stress test with prime 95 before shuting down

If they are seated improperly they can be not supplying power properly, as in my case my mobo was getting 11.61v instead of 12v and my computer would function under light loads and even in games for a while, and then would shut down out of nowhere. I went thought everything, narrowing it down to the psu and eventually the connection of my mobo cable into the psu, reseated it and have not had a problem since. Additionally loose connections and improper voltages can cause premature wear and even damage parts depending on the severity.

Troubleshooting take initiative, you never know until you try it. Reseating cables has fixed many many PCs, there are redundancies in the cables which means that even if it works at low power you may start to see issues when more power is needed, if one redundancy is not connecting well you may have an issue only at load. Just do it, it takes 30 seconds to do. We can't help you if you ignore our suggestions.

 

If you still haven't done the BIOS reset do that.

Does it just flat shut off or what? really sounds like an overheat...... bad cables? maybe it is somthing shorting causing the psu to shut off ?

Sounds like it might be bad capacitors in the psu or maybe on the mobo.

Not even close..... but how does it shut off was my main question? is it just flat dead stop or is it BSOD? like what does it do? Reboot?

Blinking???? ..... that's what a pc does in sleep mode..... unless it's like a really weird sparatic blinking then it's HDD status or ..... just bad 

Habe you tried the previous suggestions above ? from others

looked up the code , give your cpu/gpu a lil more voltage and see if it helps

How to do that??

Most MSI boards have crappy VRM design, low quality VRM's and VRM's with a high failure rate, in other words your motherboard is probably defective, i would  try to borrow a decent PSU if you can just to rule out a PSU problem first. and then RMA or replace the mobo since i'm pretty sure that's your culprit.

Can't I just increase my voltage to my cpu ??
