Recently my computer has been crashing for no real apparent reason almost exactly one min into playing the game (not t main menu)
im not sure what is wrong with my computer whether if it is Bios/OS or just power issues
i doubt that its a hardware problem considering most of the components have been working together for almost a year.
the newest component is the GPU and that was in the hopes that my GPU was just busted but ive got the same problem as before
Core - AMD FX 8350
GPU - msi GTX 1050 ti - newest component, all drivers installed -
PSU - evga 1000w gold edition - Replaced with identical one when the original broke, the crashes started when this new one was installed -
DDR 3 - 10gb

so yea im stuck here and need some help with this
i don't suspect its a cooling problem but any input would help.. alot thx

If you use a program like HWMonitor to monitor your temperatures and voltages and then run a video benchmark like Heaven you might see if anything is "off".
As far as the Power Supply I would see if you could exchange it under warranty stating that it is not working correctly and your problems with the cable, which may or may not have been relevant to your current issues.

I would suspect your new power supply as you mention that the problems started after you put it in. Of course something else may have been damaged by the new power supply but that is harder to troubleshoot. Even new power supplies can be defective.

Is there any way i can discover if this is the case? i mean i can run my GPU on a stress test with no issues with power. one of the cables that came with the PSU did seem problematic though. (i replaced it)
and if there is a problem what would you suggest would be the best course of action?
