Hey everyone,
I recently made some upgrades to my computer. I moved the components into a cooler master trooper case and installed an Msi gtx760 graphics card.
Since these changes the computer shuts down at random times. It suddenly switches off and then immediately boots back up again. Other things like the screen turn off as well.
PSU: 500W Enermax Tomahawk EKT500AWT
Above is my power supply which supposedly can handle it.
If it isn't the power supply I feel it may be the way I attached the power cables. The card only has one 8pin socket on it. Which confuses me since it apparently needs more than this. I have attached one 6pin and one 2pin into these slots.
I have a 6pin to 8pin converter that came with the card would that be a better configuration.
Thanks for your time.
