Hey everyone, my PC has started having issues. When I run a game, it sometimes shuts down with a Kernel-Power 41 error.

Also, my GPU (Gigabyte 1080) occasionally flashes a white signal, which I read could indicate abnormal power issues.

So, I thought it might be time to change the GPU, and I found two options that fit my budget.

Which one would you guys recommend? (I plan to upgrade to a 3080 later on.)

option are two  : the MSI MAG A850GL or asus prime 850w

Black screen and fans spin to 100% speed?

 

Could be overheating GPU, which is way cheaper fixing than buying new one, if you don't need more performance than you already have.

does you full system shut off? it.s most likely the power supply if the full system powers off.

for gpu think yes but psu no

so if i try  a gpu and issue still happens i can be more fixed of a starting to fail psu

 

but if so it is the psu which one seems the better option since market in algeria is limited i have access only to this two option MSI MAG A850GL or asus prime 850w

MSI is pretty good, but both are similarly good at their job.

 

If you want white PSU cables, ASUS Prime AP doesn't have white cables.

@podkall thanks for answer so yes just for a plit second and pc restarts

 

so gpu on idle is 34c when i run funmark2 max heat 72c

72C average, but what are the hotspot temps? those are more important

does the issue happen when you don't load GPU? like when you don't play games and the PC is fine for long(er) time? and then maybe you eventually fire up game and it crashes sooner or later?
