UPDATE: i think is the gpu memory? i lowered the resalution from 1080 to 720 for one of the games that keeped cusing this and it seem stable at the moment. im not sure how to test this so advice and other theroys to solve this would help greatly

 

 

so I've asked something like this before. my pc will just randomly power cycle. Windows event viewer it says error 41. I suspected the psu or ram was at fault but my pc was stable for days running nice hash(gpu and CPU full high power) plus some light YouTube on top. I've also run memtest and that came back with all clear. I've updated all drivers and software I can think of and triple checked and tested the items I suspect at fault. I have a hunch its my wall power being funky I have a ups in-between and if I was to pull the plug of the ups when my pc is at full load it will power cycle. however its not like the lights flicker when ever it power cycles(as if it were a brownout or something). another thing is that it seems more unstable after a power cycle and is more likely to do it again especially if it happened in a game. but the games it power cycles in seem to have little connection and its been perfectly stable with other more intense games.
