Hi all! I just built an awesome new pc yesterday and I have everything up and running. The problem is that whenever i launch a game the entire PC crashes and restarts. It doesn't give me a black screen or anything just shuts off. I was thinking that it could have been my GPU (GTX 970) so i removed and tried some older drivers and the newest one but everything still crashed when I tried. Tried running furmark in windowed but it would still immediately crash. I have tested my CPU with Prime95 and am using HWMoniter and the temps barley go above 40 degrees celsius for all 4 cores while testing. I truly appreciate any help you guys would give me! I do have a power supply that is atleast 5-6 years old and could be the culprit for the PC restarting everytime I launch a game.
