Hey there, I've been using my pc for about 1 year and 3 months. Recently I updated to windows 10.Recently I've been experiencing random automatic reboot while benchmarking or gaming.I had it few days before when I was using windows 7 too.for approximately 1 year 2 month I had no issues with playing games or benchmarking.
Due to this restart problem,I decided to reset my gpu over clock.and then there were no reboots.
Is it my gpu the problem or is it psu?my cpu temps and my gpu temps are within range of 51 and 60 c while under load.
GPU-Palit gtx 780
PSU-Corsair vs 650
 
Solution
I would look more at the PSU, a GPU would not cause the system to reboot. The screen would lock or go blank not reboot. since you have issues when you OC the card i would say the PSU cant handle the extra load of the OC from the card.

so please recommend what psu I should get and yes the system reboots no bsod no nothing,just reboots.I also think its the psu as vs series is the lowest series of corsair I had initial doubt while buying it. Please recommend me a psu. Plus could uneven current flow or short circuiting result in these automatic reboots,However I dont have these reboots when the card is not OCed.
