Hey everyone, my friend got me an Alienware x51 r2 for Christmas. I know that it was a bad deal, but I appreciated the gift and decided to stick with it as I thought it could handle what I do on the computer. He threw out the warranty so I can't get help. Anyways, I can play games fine, the only problem is that whenever I play a game that is graphically intense, my PC just shuts down with no warning.
The parts are:
CPU: Intel i7-4770 @ 3.40 GHz
GPU: GTX 760 Ti OEM
Case: Alienware x51 Case
Motherboard: Alienware 0PGRP5
RAM: 8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 * 799MHz
OS: Windows 10 64bit
I ran HWMonitor and these are the results:
+3.3V: MIN: 3.248V MAX: 3.280V
+5V: MIN: 4.961V MAX: 5.003V
+12V: MIN: 11.880V MAX: 11.968V
I don't think dust is the problem as it is pretty clean. I don't know if this is a clue, but whenever my computer shuts off, the AC adapter's light goes out with it too. I'm not too sure how to check my cooler, so if it is needed please tell me how to find out! Any and all help is very much appreciated
