Hi,
My computer has been rebooting when I EXIT games. It doesn't happen all the time, so far it has done so 3 times. It's Kernel-Power critical error in the event viewer. No BSOD.
The first time I was playing battlefield 4, the second time I was playing assassins creed unity but it didn't happen immediately on exit, I started watching a VLC video right after playing and then it rebooted, and the third time it just rebooted immediately upon exiting the game (AC Unity).
I've been playing both games with no reboot upon exit too, so I'm not able to replicate it every time.
It seems to happen only when they computer has been under heavy load (only reboots after exiting game, never during or before so far). It has not happened when playing less intensive games like Left 4 Dead 2 or Dark Souls or other older games, even after hour-long sessions.
I tried turning off Intel Speedstep but didn't work.
Idle CPU temps are between 29c-32c, and 60c-64c under full load. Running Prime95 Small FFT for about 10-20 minutes it does not go above 75c. CPU cooler is CM Hyper Evo 212.
GPU idle temps for the bottom card is 35c-37c and about 69c under full load. Top card is hotter, idling at 43c-45c and around 79c under full load. Full load being 99% when playing AC Unity (not sure about bf4).
My system is brand new and I've not had it for a month even.
My specs are:
OS: Win 8.1 64-bit (all updates)
Processor: i5-4670K stock speed
GPU: MSI 970 Gaming 4G SLI (Latest drivers)
Motherboard: MSI Z97 Gaming 7
RAM: 16GB Kingston HyperX Black
HDDs: 240GB SSD, 750GB HDD, 1TB HDD
PSU: Corsair AX860 (Platinum)
Thoughts?
