Hello, recently I built my new PC and everything was going great until at some point while playing a game (Team Fortress 2) my PC crashed and shutdown, meanwhile it keeps happening more than once daily. When I switch it back on it tells me something like "power supply is surging, ASUS anti surge has been activated to protect the PC"

The power supply I have is Nitrox sl-750w. I read more into it and many articles suggested to buy a new power supply, and so I will. Any suggestions on a good power supply for my PC? Here are my computer specs:

Core Processor: Intel Core i5-4590
Mother Board: ASUS H81-Gamer
Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 960
Current Power Supply: Nitrox SL-750w

Thanks In Advance,
MatsBroNic

Your system can never be damaged by too much power. The G2 series are of the very best quality, and come with a 10 year warranty, which is the most of any PSU you can buy.
