So I recently purchased a GTX 1060 6GB a few weeks ago. Been playing Skyrim Special Edition and GTA V perfectly fine. But now all of a sudden, my computer suddenly shuts off. It only happens during games usually about 15 minutes in. Sometimes it happens as the game loads. Then it won't boot until I flip the switch on my power supply off and on.
I'm not sure if this is a bad graphics card, or a bad power supply. I've monitored my temperatures during gameplay and the gpu never goes over 65c. The processor never shows anything higher than 50c. I also ran memtest and found nothing.
My old graphics card (XFX Radeon HD 6870 1GB) was causing a similar problem. It would cause weird graphical glitches, then the screen went black, then the computer would shut down after a bit. This time it just shuts down instantly, so I'm not sure its the graphics card. Any ideas?
