[Wentes]

My pc spec:
Motherboard:Msi 970A-G46
CPU:Fx-6300
Psu:Xigmatek Tauro 600w
GPU: Powercolor hd7870 GHZ edit.
RAM:2x2 Kingston KVR13N9S6/2
HDD:Samsung 500GB HD502HI

I have a problem. When I play Rift or BF3 my pc resets about 1-2 hours later.But it doesnt if I dont play games. I checked tempatures but gpu on load was 69 C and Cpu was 66C.I asked my friends and they said it is because of my PSU.I use stock fan and formatted 8.1 pro.

The Tauro is rated for 36A on the 12v rail which is more than enough for your setup. Does your PC reset during gaming, or when you stop?

It could still be the PSU, or the power strip if your pc is plugged into one. Also, 66 degrees for the fx-6300 is a bit high so you should consider buying an aftermarket cooler to bring it down a bit.

Hmm..I am testing pc without power strip.Playing rift on ultra settings and nothing happened yet.

My 3 outlet PS was powering up 1 Laptop + 1 cellphone charger + Samsung 21.5'' + Modem + 3 outlet Power strip additionally and my computer of course.

I hope ps will be the problem. Thanks for everthing bro.

Plugging power strips into power strips is called 'daisy chaining' and should be avoided - I've always said if you need to daisy chain then you should probably just by a single strip with more outlets. The setup you've described could be a cause of your problems for sure, so good luck with the testing

I am really getting bored by my pc.Nothing happend until today. and now it keeps restarting Again! I made some test also. I tortured my cpu with prime95 for an hour.Cpu was 51 C and nothing happened.Then I tortured my GPU with FurMark for an hour again.Gpu 84C and nothing happened.But I didnt think that is enough and tried twice with prime and Furmark together.First restart was at 24.min and second was at 1 hour.

Ok, back to problem solving. Can you turn off automatic restart?

Control panel > system and security > system > advanced system settings (on the left) > 'advanced' > startup and recovery settings > untick the 'automatically restart' box.

The next time you get an error you should now get a blue screen instead of a restart.

Also check the event viewer error log and see if any error codes were posted at the time of your last restart(s).

I suspect that you will end up buying a new power supply, one from tier one or tier two of this list: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html

I just want to check this first, just in case it isn't the PSU (don't want you wasting your money if you don't have to)
