Hello!

I've also got this problem with my pc rebooting randomly while just browsing the internet. It has never chrashed while playing games.

When this first happens, I can't be on the pc for more then 1 - 10 minutes before it crashes. This often lasts 2 days before it works fine.

Right now, I have disabled the Anti surge dectection, but still got a reboot once.

My specs:
Motherboard: Asus maximus VI Hero, socket-1150

CPU: i5 4670K

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 1600MHz 8GB

GPU: ASUS Radeon R9 290X 4GB GDDR5

PSU: Corsair RM850, 850W PSU

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB

SSD: Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120GB OEM

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i Hydro Series

DVD: Lite-On DVD±RW Writer, iHAS324

OS: Windows 8.1

 
Solution
+11.400 VDC < Minimum , your + 12 volt rail is getting to low.

You need to get another power supply.

Summary

Buy one. Do I really need to say anything else at this point? Once again, EVGA has something awesome here the competition can't seem to touch price wise. Performance? There are better units, yes. Not very many, but they exist. The real story here is how EVGA keeps managing to offer this kind of performance and still be more affordable than nearly everything else out there, and they have pretty much found perhaps the only OEM on Earth capable of doing it for them. It's got to be real nice being EVGA right now.

The Good:

outstanding ripple suppression
excellent voltage regulation
fully modular
semi-fanless mode
nice blacked out cabling

The Bad:

nothing at all

The Mediocre:

reviewing awesome units is getting dull... where's that gutless wonder in my pile? Second in line? Well, at least I'm guaranteed something interesting in all the wrong ways in a couple weeks...
