Hello guys. I've been doing some research on what can cause my PC to reboot while gaming and usually the problem is overheating. The issue here is that my computer doesn't overheat at all, it just reboots after a few minutes of playing the game (Dark Souls 2). It happened to me before when I played Planetside 2.
Specs:
i5-4670k 3.40GHz
8 GB RAM
R9 280X
Corsair VS550 550W
Some people told me that maybe my PSU is failing and not giving enough power to my system. I'll change it this weekend for something more powerful but I still don't understand why. Lets say Planetside 2 is a very CPU demanding game, fine, I play Dayz Standalone which is as demanding as PS2 and it doesn't make my PC reboot. Graphics card? I think mine is good enough to run almost every game right now.
What do you guys think about it?
