I was gaming yesterday and my pc suddenly shutdown and I was greeted with a screen saying a surge was detected. Every time I go do anything intensive now the same thing happens. I'm guessing its the psu which is a EVGA Supernova 650w G2 that is only 3 years old. I was able to play less intensive games and have gotten the gpu to 50% utilization but anything more than that it just shuts down. Browsing and stuff seems to function normally. Not sure if a full load on just the cpu does anything at all but I would rather not risk continuing to trigger whatever is going on. I've also tried disabling Asus Surge Protection in my bios because some people said it was finicky sometimes. However, instead of shutting down the screen went gray and fans went to full speed so I quickly held the power button to shut it off.
Again I'm assuming its the power supply but I don't have a way to check and have never experienced anything like this before. I've checked the wiring and have tried plugging the gpu into another rail on the psu but nothing changed. It's a shame because it is a very well rated psu and I haven't seen anyone with the same one who has had this happen which worries me it could be something more severe like my gpu or something....
Any help or insight would be appreciated.
