Hi so i've recently upgraded by pc with a new gpu, cpu and psu. Before hand i have never had issues or limitations but i have come across some in this case. For benchmarking reasons I decided to install msi afterburner so i could keep track of my performance or any issues with hardware. When running a variety of games i would get what looks like an error LIM POWER VOLTAGE. I used to get this along with a LIM WATTAGE with my older 350w psu which i have upgraded to a 550w. I was just wondering what i should do to remove this error and to stop limiting power and voltage. Cheers in advance

That is not a error it is just saying it has hit its power limit.
If you have a card with no 6 pin plug for the video card then really nothing you can do since it gets all the power from the motherboard.
If you have a card with the 6 pin plug you can increase the power to 110%.

Yeah thanks, I gathered after a while of gaming with no crashes that it wasn't really an error, thanks anyway
