Hello!
I have recently built my first computer so I am very new to this. I have been trying to run the game ARK survival but the game keeps having long periods of lag. For example ill play for 10 seconds and then it'll be lagging or frozen for around 2 minutes and then repeats the 10 seconds of game then 2 min of lag. On a separate game called The Forest the game ran smoothly for around 5 minutes then randomly crashed and even once rebooted the whole computer! I also tested the game Left 4 Dead 2 and it ran perfectly with no issues at all. If you have any ideas how to help me please let me know!
For the graphics card driver I am using 355.60.
Notes:
Ark would run smoothly on high settings and then freeze up the same as it did on low settings.
Forest crashed on high and on medium and once reset the computer
Temperatures idle is 30-40c
League of Legends runs on the highest settings however the computer shut off and restarted immediately after victory..
PC Parts:
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690k cpu @ 3.5ghz (Drivers are up to date and ran a CPU checker and it passed)
Graphics Card: EVGA GTX 970 Super Clocked 04G-P4-3975-KR
Motherboard: ASRock Z97 Pro4 ATX LGA1150 (drivers are up to date)
Ram: EVGA 8GB DDR3-2400 (PC3-19200) CL11 Desktop Memory Kit (Two 4GB Memory Modules)
Hard drive: Western Digital 1tb 3.5" 72000 RPM
PS: Diablotek EL Series PSEL500 500 Watt ATX Power Supply ( i heard this one was bad but could that be the source to the problems?
Case: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-02 Redshift ATX Special Edition Gaming Case w/ Red LED Fans
Any help would be appreciated! If there is anything I missed or any other information that would be helpful, please ask!
Thanks for the help!
