Ok, so I've had my PC for about a year now and then all the sudden my PC starts to randomly turn off whilst playing games. It could happen as soon as i got into my first game or it could happen 2-3 hours into a game.
So first thing i did was that i started monitoring my temps but my graphics card only went up too 70 Celsius and my CPU got to 60 Celsius so it was obviously not a overheating problem, then i factory reset my PC but it still restarted when playing games. So since i couldn't fix it i send it back to the company i bought it from (Komplett) to see if they knew what was going on, they told me they couldn't find anything but assumed it was the PSU so they switched my (corsair vs650) out for a (corsair cx650m) and sent it back to me. Everything seemed fine for about a week or 2 but then the same problem started occurring once again, but so far I've only had the problem on source based games (CSGO,dota2,l4d2), i hope this is enough info but feel free to ask questions if i missed anything, thx
specs:
MB: MSI Z97 GAMING 3 (with the latest BIOS: 2.A0)
PSU: Corsair cx650m
CPU: Intel i5-4590 (with stock cooler)
GPU: ASUS GTX970 4GB turbo
RAM: 2x HyperX Fury DDR3 1866MHz 4GB
SYSTEM: windows 10 home x64
