processor: amd fx 6300 6 core
Ram:8gb
HDD:1Tb
PSU:i-ball Marathon - 500W Peak
Motherboard: Gigyabyte 78LMT-s2p

1)So my problem with this configuration is when i play high-def games my PC restarts,i can play games for around 15-20 mins and then it restarts.I did check my bios and voltage was around 12V and i have already tried other fixes but unable to play games,can you guys please help?

2) Anyhow my PSU is cheap and i would like to change it so please can you guys help me select a decent PSU(and my GPU needs a 6 pin connector) for my configuration.(I may upgrade my GPU to gtx 970 or higher please recommend me a PSU with that in mind).

Please help me guys

I...


I see several warning signs indicating that iball psu is probably a bad power supply:
1. The brand isn't listed on the Eggxpert Tiered Power Supply List (http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/323050.aspx).
2. It looks like it has a manual switch for choosing 120V or 240V input.
3. 500W is given as the peak output, I don't see a specification of the sustained output.
4. I don't see listings of the amps available on each rail.
5. I don't find a manufacturer website for it.
6. It only has one pci-e power connector (a good 500W psu would normally have at least two)
7. No mention of protections (OCP, OVP, etc.)

That's a pretty terrible PSU. I'd suggest buying this one, it's cheap reliable, and willing to take upgrades.

It's an Indian made model, and I assume that CPU thermals are likely the issue here, let me explain why.
Despite the low quality of that PSU, the system will draw MAX 200w, so even if it was an absolute garbage unit, it'd be perfectly fine in general use, although I suggest replacing it with this ASAP: http://mdcomputers.in/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=4908&search=M12II

OP what are your CPU temps under load?
