Okay just to update, might be a easy fix for someone people but this has took me forever. After hours and hours of ways to fix my problem.

Came across PhysicX.

And changed it from GPU/AUTO to CPU.

That fixed everything.

Hope this helps someone that comes across.

Thanks for everyones effort to help.

Hi guys not posted in a long time but I'm in need of help. Over the past week my pc has been turning off/ resetting itself when I'm in a high intense game. It occurs mainly in high intense games, but this has happened whilst playing city skylines early on and on civ 6 early on in the game. At first I thought it could be a dust problem, but after cleaning my pc out the error still occured. After thinking I decided to get a new PSU as I've had my previous one for over 4 years, I got a higher wattage so I have plently of power. Error still occured. Next I thought it was the temperature of the pc especially the CPU and GPU. I decided to get a new cpu cooler as my old one was not the best. Error still occured. My final thoughts are the problem lies within the GPU. Cleaned, and been used for over 3 years.

I have recently re-installed windows 10, but not wiped all the drives.

My cpu was recently installed earlier this year.

Not too sure what the problem is. Fan wise I have 3 installed around the case. Not including the GPU fans.

If anyone has any idea of what to do, Please let me know.

Thanks for reading, looking forward to your replies as I'm in need. Feel like I'm in the shining self isolated and can't figure out what's wrong with my pc :)

Thanks agan, Declan.

Have you tried resting the bois after the cpu change? And is the CPU and GPU getting the correct amount of voltage?

 

Also, GPU EVGA Nvidia GTX 980 ti 8GB SSC? Do you mean 6GB?

Hi, thank you for your message.

I'm not too sure whats the recommened voltage, and where to check it.

Sorry.

It should be set to default if nothing is overclocked.

I blieve that's GPU voltage, go into BIOS on boot and check VCore voltage, set it to Auto along with CPU core speed.

Hi. I have done this and the issue has just happened again. Checked out the GPU Opened it up cleaned it a little bit from the dust. Don't think anything is out of the ordinary.

Any other suggestions?

Also when checking out the temps on Speed fan 4.52 "SCSI DISABLED by user or because iaStorA.sys is installed" any ideas? Could this cause a problem?

Try running a cpu and memory stress test to boil it down to some single component (probably Gpu in that case) 

 

If the stress test fails, try resetting your bios by removing the cmos battery. 

 

If it still fails, you might have a bad cpu, RAM or motherboard.

Okay so the cpu test went succesfully. But, the GPU test didn't. Whilst monitoring the gpu data, the programme was running fine. 10 seconds into the test I saw no noticeable changes in the data. After the 10 seconds, the computer went into a black screen, gpu fans turned off, and the screen came back up. Temperature were rising 6c every second as the fans were off. Before I could do anything the computer shuts down.

Having a shit time during this lockdown with no work so this is driving me mad.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Dec.

Update, whilst testing out different stats of the GPU I noticed when the PC crashed the percentage in the utilization under GPU Surged from 60% to 100% just loading a game main menu.
