I am currently getting system crashes when I run games. Sometimes the games run fine and then after a while they crash the system. I am unsure as to where the problem is occurring. I was using one of the MSI tools and the 12V rail was registering as being only 1.5V (would have thought that games wouldnt even start with a 12V rail that low). I checked the connectors and all seems to be set up correctly. I have update all drivers and BIOS. Any ideas? Replacing the power supply would be a pain so Id like to see if thats really the problem first.
