Pc restarts when enemies get near me in video games

[theRatty]

I made a similar post about this a few days ago however I had thought I had solved it. 

in multiple video games when enemies get near me and make loud noises my entire PC restarts

First the audio will start to stutter, then the frames will sync up to the audio and stutter as well

then my PC will freeze and restart with no clear errors or blue screen. only error 41 in event viewer, updates bios, clear cmos, other things I tried are in the last post

error 41 is kernel power.

either powersupply is too weak when more 3d needs to be generated it shuts down. 

drivers can't handle it.. 

you said nothing about your hardware so hard to say.

Which exact PSU? Some random gold 1000W doesn't say much.

 

Also, are you able to test the CMOS battery voltage? Have you tried replacing the battery?

Please give more details about hardware. Is this a laptop or desktop ? Which cpu , ram , gpu , ssd does it have ?

Also it would be nice if we know the game as well  

Without knowing these we can help harder. 

 

Other than that things to check and do:

- xmp : disable xmp

- bios : reset to default

 - drive healths  : you can check it by hdd sentinel (has free trial) 

- temps : check your hardware temp

-warranty : if your pc is new it should have warranty - take your data and send for warranty

- OS : back up your data and try a clean windows

have not tried to replace the battery, rosewill hive 1000s looking at it now its actually 80 plus bronze not gold.

this is a brand new problem so unless psus get less efficient considerably over time I don't see how a 3080 and a 5800x3d would draw even close to 800 watts

Tried all of that other than clean windows, I would very much prefer to avoid that route

It was in the other post and in the bio, this is a new issue so I don't see how that could be.

Replace the battery. I've had similar issues on my Asus x570 board and those went away when I replaced the 2.3V battery with a new 3.3V.

its not about drawing high watt  - its about consistency usually we care mostly 12v channel but we need other voltages as well. such as 5v and 3.3v. I encountered a 1000w psu with gamer brand what so ever thing with funny 5v channel which lead the pc to sometimes ( most of the time) not detecked the sata drives . 

And never say "it cant be this part that is faulty".

would that cause visual stuttering and audio stuttering? all the psu issues I've had in the past simply shut off or never turned on

audio and texture files get read from drivers including nvme and sata. nvme uses 3.3v if its sata its 5v. When read is delayed it can cause that kind of issue. Read can be delayed cause of drive dying or psu like i mentioned. And if you have a spare drive or psu. Why not try it ?

according to crystaldiskinfo my drives are good. I don't have a spare 1000 watt psu. My thought is some poorly designed software clashing with something. 41 is also the same code for holding a power button and forcing a shutdown. I have had some very strange errors over the years and the more complicated or specific, the more likely it was not hardware-related

im going to try something, turn off the PC and unplug all but the 12v cables and replace the others with power from my old psu because it cant power the whole thing and test again with a jumper from back in the day for the mobo cord on the other psu. power on the PC and intentionally cause the situation that led to the crashing. I will report back with whether that solves it or not unless someone wants to tell me that's unsafe

I tried my pc with 2 psu before cause i didnt have a big watt unit to test my new gpu. So you can do that but always run the 12v psu first (with shorting pins) then the other one (by motherboard power on)

oh wow good point holyyy i probably would done it correctly but very important to keep in mind. 

[theRatty]

no change, seems to be intermittent, sometimes just the audio, sometimes audio and video, sometimes a crash

 

Leaning towards some type of deep rooted instability

 

I seem to have the strangest errors due to simply how many different software I run

[theRatty]

it was the psu, got the corsair hx 1000 and we're off
