I haven't had this problem for a solid 6 months now, but it just happened again.
I was playing CS:GO, on literally the lowest settings, with fixed 200fps, so the CPU and GPU usage were quite low, only about 40% on the CPU, and depending on where I was heading, from 30 to 60 on the GPU.
I'm currently on a GTX 560Ti with an i5 2500, nothing is overclocked.
For the PSU, I'm using a Corsair VS550, which I've only bought about 4 months ago.
I did Prime 95 right after it happened, assuming that it might have been the RAM that caused the problem.
Although I only ran it for about 3 mins, no error pop'd up, the PC didn't shut down or anything like that.
I only ran it for 3 minutes because I saw people with the same "problem" on other forums, and they claimed that their PC had immediately shut down before the test could even begun.
So I thought it was fine.
I'd really appreciate an answer from you guys, if any of you had the same problem and found a solution, whether it is hardware related or the PC just needs a fresh Windows?
Thanks in advance for everyone!
