I just bought a brand new gtx 1050 Ti OC WINDFORCE. At first the pc couldn't install drivers because the windows wasn't updated. For some odd reason i couldn't update it so i installed a fresh windows 10 1607. And after nvidia GeForce experience found the drivers the pc keeps randomly restarting as if there was a power cut(the oc turns off imediately and then boots).

Corsair TX 750W
Intel core i7 875 (quite old)
8gb ram hyperX
Motherboard gigabyte p55m l01
I have 3 HDDs
WD 600gb
And 2 others that are around 100


I read about oc guru drivers and uninstalled the program - still restarts.

Should i consider running the pc with the old gtx 275 and see if it doesn't restart. And if it does does it mean its the power suply? I though 750w is more than enough

Update: every time the pc restarts now brings a problem with the account. It boots into a temporary profile. I cleared this problem with regedit but it just restarted again and it's again in a temporary profile. Couls it be a faulty install? I installed it via USB and the iso is from microsoft media tool.

I had same problem with Windows 8.1 when I plugged new GPU in slot, it fixed itself, some strange messages appeared and PC was restarting every time.
Sorry I don't really know the fix, just wanted to say this.
Messages were like bad pool header, some memory error, page overload or something like that.
