Hello, my computer turns itself off while playing games. My computer specs are more than good enough to run the games, mostly path of exile.
What I have done to try to resolve the issue so far:
1. Tried replacing the surge protector, cable to the power supply, and changed wall outlets.
2. Replaced the RAM, also alternated 1 stick at a time in different slots to ensure they all worked.
3. Did a fresh install of windows, kept 0 files on the hard drive. Placed everything else on a cloud.
4. Tried messing around with the wattages(up and down) accordingly for my CPU and GPU to see if the power supply was failing at a certain wattage, or if the components weren't getting enough juice.
5. Changed out the hard drive to eliminate that as a possibility. Made a fresh disc for an ensured good install.
Other symptoms:
1. Frame loss during games while idle and full load, seemingly at the same rate.
2. Keyboard stops functioning randomly, as well as the wireless card cutting out. Both issues are resolved but unplugging and replugging.
I do not have a separate power supply to test, but the one I have should be more than enough power at 1200w gold rated.
I don't have a spare motherboard to test it out as well.
I've been trying for weeks now, and I'm at the end of my rope. I could really use an assist on this one! Thanks in advance!
