Computer 'restart' when playing games on high graphics.
My computer shuts down whenever I play a game that i max out the graphics on. I emailed the company I bought this computer from and it was determined to be a issue with my power supply (500W), so they sent me a new one (700W). I replaced the power supply but the issue still remains. The tech support is time consuming and stressful as they like to juggle you between branches, make you wait, and contradict each other, so I found this forum. I ran the program core temp and none of the temperatures (other than tj.max) exceed 50C. The temperatures displayed are as follow:
tj.max 105 C
power 12.5W
core 0 MAX 47 C
core 1 MAX 43 C
core 2 MAX 42 C
core 3 MAX 45 C
In game the temperature go up 2-3 C, this computer was a recent buy and when i replaced the power supply, there were no issues with dust.
My computer specs are:
1 x Processor Intel® Core™ i7-3770K Processor (4x 3.50GHz/8MB L3 Cache) - Intel Core i7-3770K w/ Intel Performance Tuning Protection
1 x Processor Cooling Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooling System - Standard 120mm Fan
1 x Memory 16 GB [4 GB X4] DDR3-1866 Memory Module - G.Skill Ripjaws X
1 x Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 - 2GB - FREE Upgrade to 660 2GB EVGA Superclocked - Single Card
1 x Motherboard ASUS P8Z77-V LX
1 x Power Supply 700 Watt
1 x Primary Hard Drive 2 TB HARD DRIVE -- 64M Cache, 7200rpm, 6.0Gb/s - Single Drive
Thank you for any replies!
