Hi,

I recently update my display to a acer x34 with freesync (3440X1440) since then I have been having issues with my computer. In game sometime the screen will flicker and then the game will crash I have no idea what’s causing this they only thing I can think of is that its not enough power.

My system is

R9 295x2

AMD FX 8350 (upgrading to skylake end of this month)

Kraken x61

Asus crosshair V formula z

16 GB corsair vengeance ddr3 1600mhz

Evga supernova 1000W

Corsiar 780t

Amd r7 240gb SSD

WD Black 4tb

What do you think?

No chance of it being too little power.

 

No 1000W power supply should be too little for a 295x2, even if it is a beast of a card.

 

That doesn't necessarily mean it isn't a problem related to the power supply, however.
