Always Restart INGaming

[MichaelSw20]

Hello. Well from last week, my pc has been acting strangely, since it always restart after around 5-10 minutes when playing games. Not just graphic-demanding games like gtaV, my pc also restarts in games like tf2. But when playing, i still got a high FPS since i have a pretty good pc
specs :
i5 4690
AsRock fatality z97 killer
corsair vengeance ddr3 1600mhz 8gb ram
msi gtx 960 2gdt5
WD 1TB caviar-blue
And Corsair CX600 psu

My pc could handle gta5 ultra settings at 1080p for 60fps, even now, its still like that. But after 5-10 minutes, it just shuts down and then turns back on again. Can anybody help?

Sounds to me like something's overheating/throttling, check your temperatures when you're in-game.

ive got a corsair hydro h80i, my cpu never exceeds 60C even under load, my gpu's ussually sits around 60-70 when under load. Is that normal?

How old is your PSU?

Alright, so there are no temperature issues, your GPU temps are fine. Now that that's out of the way, it's more than likely your PSU. I have the CX series, and I personally haven't had a problem with it, but I hear it's not the best. Change/swap out that PSU, see if the problem continues.

Unless it's the MOBO throttling, no. More than likely the PSU, and if it's not, we can always go from there.
