GTX 1050 TI low FPS in every game and computer shutting down during some games

[joshsweet48]

No matter what settings I have on counter strike I always have really low FPS like around 20. I can’t even play some games because when I start them up my computer will shut down and I have to unplug it for it to start again. It’s been like this since I got the graphics card, before I replaced the graphics card everything was fine.

My specs:

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 TI 4GB GDDR5

CPU: AMD FX(tm)-8100 Eight-Core Processor

Motherboard: ASRock 960GM-GS3 FX

Installed RAM 8GB

PSU: ATX-TL 500w-BK 12V

Sounds like you have a bad PSU.

It's very low quality, you should replace it either way.
Power Supply: Corsair - CX (2017) 450W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($44.90 @ OutletPC)

i don't even know what kind PSU is that. check the 3V, 5V, 12V, on BIOS, or HWInfo. if the voltage lower than main Voltage, 3,5,12. it must be bad PSU.

In all honesty even if the PSU isin't the thing causing your issues you should replace that thing anyway. Generally the PSUs that are unbranded/generic and ones that nobody has heard of are system killers and can probably cause a house fire if not careful. If they pop they are probably likely to take other hardware with them. I dunno if your PC is a pre-built or whether you built it yourself, either way. For the future, when building a system, never skimp out on a PSU.
