Hello!
I have a problem with computer restarting while playing intensive games. I have experienced this while playing Total war Arena, AC Rouge, Witcher 3 and the most problematic is H1Z1 King of the kill. This problem occured when I updated Nvidia drivers and reinstaled C++ redistributable. I never had problems before. I have tried reinstaling drivers updateing BIOS reinstaling c++ and reinstaling windows. I was reading that it might be PSU or GPU issue. I swaped out GPU with gtx 750 and everything worked fine. I have tried my PSU and GPU on other computer and it worked fine even with more intensive games like AC syndicate. I have tried to run games only with CPU graphics and it never restarted my computer even when I set graphics to max (it was unplayable but at least I forced my CPU). I have mostly tested on H1Z1 king of the kill since its most problematic. H1z1 restarts my computer only when everything is set to max if i just stand in the game it wont restart but when I start to move computer restarts. The game likes to restart my computer when hiting I (inventory) if I have luck to move around. This happens only when I play on Ultra other settings works fine.
I really dont know what else to do. I have read other forums with simmilar issues. Tested GPU, PSU I ran CPU test Mem test disk chek... Everything seems to be right. Other games than H1z1 will restart my computer only from time to time like Witcher 3 upon loading (I dont have that problem any more when i installed win 8.1). Nothing is OCed except GPU which is factory oced.
