I'm at a total loss here. I have the latest drivers and use MSI Afterburner to monitor my card. I understand that the GTX 580 with the default BIOS has issues running DX11 games at stock voltage so I increased the voltage. My temps never go higher than 79C. Yet whenever i run a demanding DX11 game the screen will eventually turn off, the GPU fans start running at max settings and the computer restarts only for the mobo to not recognise my GPU. I then have to shut down and restart manually using the power button. The only solution I have been able to achieve is underclocking the card at 640MHz. Yet increasing the voltage up to 1138mV does not stop this issue from happening when running at stock 772MHz clock speeds or higher. I also know the 1050 PSU can't be the cause as it can run 2 580s in SLI so surely it isnt an issue of not enough power.
So if the temperatures appear normal and voltage is increased to 1138mV then why is this happening? What is causing my card to shut down the computer in this strange manner and then not get detected by the mobo? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can provide additional information if required, this is really doing my head in.
