Computer restarts when I play crysis 3

[Cameron Hoge]

Hello, its my birthday today and I just got a new EVGA GeForce 660gtx and every game but crysis works beautifully. Whenever I get into a multiplayer match in crysis, the graphics look amazing but after about 10 seconds my computer restarts. I have a AMD FX 4100 quad core processor and 8 gb of ram.
Thanks.

+1 to what PSU this is likely the problem.

If you have an ASUS motherboard, then check if "Anti-Surge" is activated, because it is a not-optimized feature that could trigger without a real reason.

If it is the problem (I will look up the model later), should I buy a new one? Is it easy to install?

you want atleast a 550w psu and all you have to do is connect what you took out with the old psu
