Hello, i'm a bit worried about my computer randomly shutting off on me after just installing a 275 GTX. I posted here yesterday with questions about my PSU and after some positive responses decided to go with buying the card.
I currently have The Apevia 750 Watt PSU and a BFG Tech 275 GTX OC
( http://www.apevia.com/ProductsInfo.asp?KEY=ATX-LCD750W )
The computer turns on fine, the card runs fine, it's running games fine, but so fine it has shut down on me twice mid gameplay. It doesn't reboot, it just shuts off. Is this a PSU problem? Can it not handle powering the card under stress or is it the card itself the issue here? I thought it may be an overheating issue, but the GPU never passed 70 C under load, the CPU runs 50-70, and HD runs fairly low. In order to fit the GPU in, I had to move my HD from one slot to another, not sure if this had anything to do with it. It's also OC'd, could this perhaps be causing it, should I tune it down some? Fairly concerned with it shutting off at random and would like some insight as to what you guys think it is. Thanks.
