PC SHUTTING DOWN When opening games

[Gikinosaji]

Hey guys i recently bought my very own Vega 64 Asus Strix edition. After installing all the drivers and updating them My pc keeps on shutting down only when I open games. For example I open pubg it loads for a moment then the pc shuts down and opens again. Same for other games like cs go. I got to the loading screen but when the map loads the Pc shuts down. I tried undervolatinf to -50% but still no luck.

 

My specs are

I5-8600k

Z370 aorus gaming 7

8gb gskill vengeance 2400

Vega 64  strix edition

Id cooling auro flow rgb 240

M.2 ssd sx6000 adata

Firecuda 1tb

Seagate 1tb

Thermaltake lite power 650w

 

Anyhelp would be appreciated

not sure if this will matter but did you delete the old drivers first? use a program like DDU to wipe the drivers then reinstall the needed ones.

Seems like something with the power supply. Try to hit the GPU with a load (MSI Kombustor should do the trick) and see what happens. If that does not crash, use the CPU burner at the same time and see if that’s causing the computer to shut down.

I already deleted the old drivers months ago. As of now im using my pc without my gpu. (Intel UHD 630) and when I open games it doesnt shut down just have bad frames.

Could it be my powersupply is not enough?

your PSU should be fine for the set up.

[LukeNukem9]

Is your GPU overclocked? if so, try reseting it. if not, try underclocking it.

[SolarNova]

Aye the PSU 'should' be fine. But do what has been sugested and put a synthetic load on ur system , CPU 1st, then GPU, then both.

 

Also make doubly sure youh ave it all wired up correctly

It comes overclocked out of the box. I tried undervolting in and still no luck

 

heres a video of it shutting down unexpectedly.

dont mind what im saying i was suppose to record the fan noise then the pc turned off

[LukeNukem9]

Must be the PSU. is that getting noticble hot?

[LukeNukem9]

Run a bench mark for sure.

[LukeNukem9]

get kombuster. it moniters your gpu while it benchmarks.

On Asus website they recommend 750w power for Vega 64 Strix.

And one thing that may cause problems with PSU is overloading one of the power rails. Even if the PSU has 650w output its combined power of all power rails.

bench mark your GPU first

 

[Gikinosaji]

Btw these are the cables im attaching to the gpu. Its correct right?

[LukeNukem9]

What do you mean a different rail? Sorry noob question

try a diffrent PCI-e power cable from your PSU. use no extensions, spliters, joiners.

These 2   6+2 pin connectors are all my psu have

i know that its just your first pic, your case covers(idk what there called), one was still in.

[LukeNukem9]

How is your PSU?

[Rusted]

If possible try different PSU, either borrow one from a friend or try your card on other computer.

After quick look on google, hardocp has a test on Strix vega 64 and on their system the max wattage on stock card is 490w.
