Hi! First of all, it's my first time to ask anything here, I hope I get something.
Anyway, I just built my first rig the other day and it just sucks that it keeps on shutting off everytime I play games.
What happens is that my computer suddenly powers off, but leaves the cpu cooler LED and keyboard illumination on. At first I thought that my PSU was not enough, I'm using a Corsair VS450 psu, and it may seem too low, but all psu calculators tell me that I just need around 350W for my system. I tried using all temp reading apps to no avail. I managed to, however, stumble upon HWmonitor which shows the same temps as Easytune 6. CoreTemp shows temps below 12 C all the time! In HWmonitor and ET6, my temps at 24 on idle, 36-39 on Prime95. However, I noticed that it shuts off at 40 C every time! That's way too low. AMD OD shows that I still have ~45 C margin. Btw, my BIOS temps show 50C even before booting windows.
Again, it shuts off when it reaches 40 C on HW Monitor and ET6
To turn it on again, I have to switch off my PSU and wait for the keyboard and LED to turn off before turning on again.
All settings on stock.
I've tried reinstalling my Antec Kuhler 920, still nothing. Tried the stock HSF, even worse.
Is there something wrong with the CPU? MB? PSU?
