its has been three days since i buyed the psu,i connected it and played bf4 multiplayer,watchdogs single player on ultra 1080p, i was curious about the speed of the fans of the psu and the gpu during gaming,rest every thing was fine, so the next day i just connect two of the fans in the casing with the psu :( , i was goin to start the game and the pc restarted :( . i removed the fans and turned the pc on, and after 2-3 min without any load on the pc it restarted again.now it started doing like this.. so i thought its a driver problem or some thing i copied the files from linux,and the thing is during the time that linux was running there were no issues neither it restarted for 30 mins.i installed the windows ,installed the new drivers for everything, and as i started using it it started restarting :( ,then my bro did the following:
Tried stress testing on GPU and CPU, works all fine during test, once test is stopped, and I start normal browsing of computer it restarts.
Checked the event log its “windows kernel power id 41”, dump file says its caused by “ntoskernel.exe”
Memtest,hdd test by Seagate all shows everything is perfect

i bought a coughar 1050w gold , but still it was the same.after my bro figured out the problem was that my card was connected with a single wire of pci-e, for a 8 pin and a 6 pin.my bro put separate wire for the 6 pin and separate for 8 pin.the problem was that the gpu wasn't getting enough power that caused the "error id 41". Alhamdulillah now its working fine ;)
