Recently i installed a GT 960 SC into my stock PC, upon playing games like Counter-Strike,H1Z1 or Rust. While playing these games my computers peripherals will shutdown but the PC still has LED/fans running or more often then the first it will just do a full restart.
I have done tests but need help determining a fix to the problem.
- It DOES only happen with the 960 not the old 610 GPU.
-Switching fan placement within the PC does prolong *random restarts*
-Lowering in game resolution does prolong *random restarts*
- I am running a Stock CPU heatsink with no heatpipes FRESH Arctic silver thermal paste
PC Specs:
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5ghz
GPU: GT 960 SC
Motherboard: MSI 760GM-P34(FX) (MS-7641)
PSU: 500W (Idk the model) but its not a optimal name brand PSU & approx 3-4 years old version
4x 120mm Fans (1 Above CPU, 1 Front, 1 back, 1 side for GPU exhaust)
Currently running a positive air pressure setup.
1x CPU fan
