Hi,
I have a problem where if I try to play graphically intensive games like Witcher, Batman, GTA - the pc restarts when I go into the game world. Now I can open the game and navigate through menus but just when it finishes loading my pc restarts.
I build my PC (first time building) 2 months ago. I could play games for 15 mins + and there was no problem during the first month. It's just recently this started happening. According to TomsHardware PSU tier list, my PSU is in Tier 2 and I posted on reddit whether my PSU could handle it and everyone said yes. Now I'm thinking if I should have gone for a higher watt psu. The R9 390 produces lot of heat and is power hungry and so I am regretting if I should have just bought a GTX 970 instead of this
Should I get a new PSU? new graphics card? Or is it some problem with my PSU that i can return it under warranty or is it that my cables haven't connected properly?
