I’ve bin having tones of problems with my pc lately trying to play games originally the problem was my graphics card going over it’s allowd voltage threshold which I believed to be causing the crashes because when I underclocked the card it wouldn’t crash I sent it to be repaired got it back plugged it back in wiped my pc then reinstall a couple games as soon as I tried to play a game it gets to the menu usually but when trying to actually play it either crashes the computer completely or all my monitors go blank but I can still here sound and talk on discord I have tried reinstalling the drivers even the OS nothing has worked if I run AIDA64 without letting it stress my gpu my pc works fine but if I let it stress the gpu it crashes within 30 seconds I’m not entirely sure what’s wrong

I think it is the PSU, EVGA G2 Series is a copy of Super Flower leadex gold which cheats to get good hold-up time on old tests, and sets far too low under-voltage protection values and VRMs of all your hardware can be seriously affected by such a low voltage, 10.8V. There is a reason the ATX specification exists. 10.8V is two times out of the specification.
