Hi guys my computer restarts when playing games.

At first it restart only on assassins creed IV black flag i uninstalled that i because it restart after i played for only 5 minutes and now it happens even in dota2 and nba but for both it is random.

And i hear the case fan making noise.

I know that maybe this is a psu problem but just want to check with you guys before i buy.

I did the following

  • mem check
    check disk
    run aida64 for 10minutes it didn't restart
    reapply thermal paste my cpu temp is high even after i've done this.
    CPU temp when playing dota2 is around 60-65
    when idle it's around 30-40

Here at the specs of my rig.

  • I5 - 6500
    z170A Tomahawk (ms-7970)
    hyperx Fury 8gb DDR4 x2
    GTX 750TI
    Corsair vs 550

Thanks guys.



Update when i touch the case it is grounded it has a electricity so i tried to remove the mother board and then put some electrical tape on the screw under it but it is still grounded.
 
Solution
If temps are good, two most common things to cause this is a failing video card or power supply. You can try a clean Windows setup also to rule out any software issues.
