Black screen crash after launching game

[7030azaa]

I upgraded my gtx750 ti to 960 And i've been having trouble . For first thing the monitor always turns off , com restarts whenever i launch a game (Cs.Go, War Thunder.etc)

I would download and install the graphics driver from geforce.com.

The latest driver is having some problems. So, i suggest using version 391.24 .

This is most likely due to lack of power. What is your PSU model? The 960 needs more power and requires a 6pin connector while the 750 TI doesn't. Ensure you have this connected to the GPU.

If it is connected and still restarts, then you need a new PSU.

The graphics card wouldn't run at all without the PCIE power cable being connected. Although it may be be related to insufficient power.

Im guessing it might be PSU related problem , and my psu model is quite an mystery , Its an edvan 500w. And the old gtx 750 ti required 6pin connector before

Depending upon the GTX 960 they require 1 or 2 6-pin PCIE cables and a 400 watt power supply. Your power supply may not be putting out that many watts now.

You can switch it out with another PSU to test it. Or just replace the power supply. Depending upon your budget, I would recommend a Seasonc or EVGA 500 - 550 watt power supply.

Generic low-quality PSU. You can do yourself a favor by replacing it with something good like a Corsair/EVGA PSU. Generic PSUs often can't supply the power they claim.

Question from 7030azaa : "PSU maybe causing the gpu black screen crash on high demanding game launch."

Im starting to have doubts on my psu , my psu might be underdelivering to my gpu which is the main cause of my black screen crashes on graphically demanding games . Even the heaven benchmark.

can someone confirm? my gtx 960 is Galax Gtx 960 2gb

The best way to do this.....is to check your voltages while this is occurring.

I could look at the label, and tell you per the specs if it should work or not....but that doesn't mean that the power supply is outputting to specs.
