Good morning, community! I apologize beforehand.. I'm from Argentina and my English's a bit rusty.
Well, I'm having the following issue:
My computer keeps shutting down while using intense graphic games, such as Assassin's Creed IV, Watch Dogs, etc. What really concerns me is that, when the PC shuts down, the VGA's cooler goes up to 100%, and it keeps that speed (and noise..) even while the computer's off. Although, in some occations, it simply shuts down, no extreme cooling.
For example: I start playing "Forest" (really nice survival FPS), which practically abuses the VGA. Keep playing for 10-15 minutes and suddenly, PC shuts down while the cooler goes to the maximum (and usually startles me).
Any ideas of what could be going on?
Here are my PC specs:
CPU: AMD FX-6100 Six-Core Processor @ 3.3GHz
RAM: 8GB DDR3
MOBO: ASUS M5A88-M
VGA: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti (ZOTAC International)
OS: Windows 8 Pro 64bit
PSU: Sentey Brp600 600W
Note #1: I know it's VGA related. This problem started after I changed my trusty old 430GT for this one.
Note #2: I tried logging the activity of the VGA (temperature, fans, clocks, etc), but found nothing unusual.
Thanks in advance!
