Hi, I recently upgraded to a GTX 770 gpu, and have been having problems with my computer randomly restarting whenever I play anything graphically intensive. It was fine at first, and has been getting worse and worse. Can't seem to figure out if it's my PSU, or my cpu is overheating. Everything was fine when i still had my old gtx 570, got a good deal on a 770 so I upgraded. League of Legends is fine, as well binding of issac, but any sort of FPS crashes fairly quickly. None of my temps ever go about 60c according to speedfan. Here are my specs, thanks!

PSU:Inland ATX 600w silver series
Processor: AMD FX-6100 Six core Processor at 3.30 ghz
motherboard: gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P
Ram: 8 gb corsair
HD: 120 gb and 60gb corsair ssds

hmm i think thats all my info that anyone might need. any help would be greatly appreciated!

Minimum recommended PSU for GTX 770 is 600W (by nVidia), and by what few I have read about Inland PSUs by googling a bit they might not give the amount of power they advertise. So my guess would be that the PSU isn't giving enough power on the heavier games.

hmmm, this was what I was thinking. If I use my EVGA Precision X to run my card at only 65% power, the crashes stop. Is this even more indicative that my PSU is crapping out? any suggestions for a cheap, decent PSU? Thanks so much!!
