Furmark causes pc to restart

[lilking08]

Hey everybody.

I did about a 10min test of FurMark and my PC randomly restarted.

This is my current build at the moment https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/yrFDhq

I do not know what is causing these restarts.

Is my PSU faulty? Should I RMA it?

Do I need to buy a larger wattage PSU? 650W?

Should I replace my graphics card?

Thanks

I would avoid using Furmark all together.
Does the same thing happen under gaming loads?

A 550w is plenty for that system.

your power supply is the right size. is it in need to be replace that still needs to be identified.

Questions:
=======
Where you running furmark to do a burn in ?
What test did it "reset" itself on. ?
Is this a new build ?
Does it crash/reset itself when your playing a game ? running a movie ?

ideas to test:
considering you only have one stick of memory unless you have another one handy I guess we wont be able to test that theory
you could detach your video card from the system (ie remove it completely) wire your monitor to the internal video connector and run test again to see if the "reset during testing " occurs again or not.

Only when I play overwatch, but when I play CS GO, it doesn't crash.
