Hello I recently purchased the corsair CXM 500W and Msi GTX 660 Ti OC edition and installed them in my system but have been experiencing crashes/bluescreen/black screen everytime I play high end games like Crysis 3 and Tomb Raider. This does not happen on any other games which are not demanding graphics wise.
My full system specifications are (I have the dell inspiron 620)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2320 CPU @ 3.00GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB OC edition (single fan)
Corsair CXM 500W
4 GB Ram (2 * 240-pin DDR3 DIMM slots Supports Dual Channel DDR3 1333/1066 MHz non-ECC , un-buffered memory (Max. 8GB))
Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit
GDG8Y Motherboard Dell Inspiron 620 Intel Desktop s1156 MIH61R 1000971 48.3EQ01.
I have already tested my memory. I have done a stress test on my graphics card and everything seems ok. My temperatures are all:
HDD 34C at idle
CPU at idle 34C (Max during Dota 2 at 60-70)
GPU idle 32C (Max during stress test was 72C).
Could anyone please tell me the cause of this? The corsair CXM 500w should definitely provide the GPU with the power as it requires a minimum of 450W. The card is not overclocked and it's at its default settings I have not tampered with anything. Also, sometimes when the pc freezes the game just stops responding and/or says at the bottom that the gpu has stopped responding but has recovered or the same happens to my internet wifi adapter. Any advise would be very helpful. Thank you.
