Hello all !
Around a year and a half ago, i upgraded my system from gtx 550 ti , to 970 g1 , and added Samsung 850 evo.
Everything was fine for a year, except couple of crashes hear and there, and sometimes didn't boot and made 3 short beeps, i mostly solved this by removing one ram stick and reinserting.
One day when i played my computer crashed, no blue screen, I tried to boot him up, and got short quick beeps when trying to boot.
I was like , OK this has happened before so I got one ram stick out, and now the computer booted, was stuck on bios , and beeping every 30 seconds.
I tried to unplug Hard drive , optical drive reader , every external phariperal and still same error- stuck on bios with long beeps every 30 seconds.
I tried to boot without the GPU , which the computer did , and I was presented with this screen( I was using the onboard graphics),
I waited till it finished, and the computer booted up normally.
When I tried to insert the graphics card the computer doesn't want to bot and I'm getting 1 long beep , and 3 short ones.
I sent the card to RMA (stupidly i know), and they returned it to me as the gpu was fine.My friend then tested the card on his system and it worked fine.
When i got the card, i inserted it into the pc, booted fine , had a very long bios screen 1-2 minutes, then windows loaded fine.I Fixed this problem by updating my bios version (F5 -> F12),
but now when i try to play a game, my computer just reboot after 20 min or so (depends on the game).
When im not doing anything that requires high gpu usage the computer is stable.
I wanted to test my machine to eliminate other problems, so i used a stress test that consisted of Furmark, and prime95, while recording sensors with hwinfo.
My computer rebooted after around 9 minutes.
Even in my games, and in the benchmark my gpu would work fine, and i got good frame rate.
I attached the stress test log below, and here are my full computer specs : http://speccy.piriform.com/results/d027LREWndsbtpYgHyEv7iT
I'm using Antec 500w 80+ bronze, dont know the exacts model, but here is an image with some data (This might be very useful - it states all the power info):
Temperatures are fine, i ran prime95 for 2 hours and averaged out on 65 c on the cpu.
To summarize:
What is causing this ? I think my psu might not be giving enough power ?
Thanks in advanced.

To summarize:
* Computer crashing during gpu load
* Cpu temperatures are fine(Gpu under full load while i was running the test was @ 80)
* Computer stable when not doing anything gpu related
* Gpu is 100% working
What is causing this ? I think my psu might not be giving enough power ?
