Did you check it with a multimeter?

Don't have one

Then what did you check with? If it's voltage readings in software, just ignore them. If the voltages were really 8V, it wouldn't power on.

The game freezing will not be caused by the PSU. If the PC just shuts down, as if you pull the power plug, that's possibly the PSU.
