Comp restart while gaming

[Raori]

Hopefully somebody can help me with this. I'm about at my wits end. My computer randomly, after 6 months of working perfectly fine, will now restart while I'm trying to play games. It seems to happen once the maps are loaded only. I've already ran through various drivers for my graphics card and none of them have worked. Thanks for the help to anyone that replies!

Check you CPU temps while gaming it could be over heating. I had a similar problem a while back and it turns out my CPU cooler wasn't working properly.

I've got a wraith cooler and the fan is in great shape from what I can tell

Just did a temp check and everything is running between 30-35°c so it's definitely not an overheating issue

System specs(including make and model of the psu)? Most common causes are overheating and power issues.

-_- I would forget the one thing you specifically asked for. It's a
Thermaltake smart 650w

Could be a psu fault the smart series are not very good units. Monitor your cpu and gpu temps while they are underload.
