Hello, recently I have been having kernel power crashes. I managed to trace it down to a LiveKernelEvent issue. I have been told this is a GPU related problem. I have tried updating my drivers to the latest version (didn't work). Can anyone suggest any possible solutions? Thanks - Lewis.

Asus GTX 1060 6GB.
My PSU, I don't really know to be honest. 550w Corsair, could be from the CX series.

 
If a LKE issue is GPU related, Then the 1060 has an issue. What that issue is, is undetermined at this point. It could be it is not receiving enough power from the PSU. Do you have the 6+2 pin PCI/E power cord fully plugged in?
Could you verify what PSU model, exactly, you are using?
