Recently I got myself a new monitor, with a higher resolution than the previous one. The problem is that my system keeps rebooting with "power surges detected" when my PC is under load, eg: when I am playing some game, or when my CPU is under heavy load. I didn't use to have this problem before. I know a bigger monitor will usually not bring power issues as it powers from the wall and not from the psu, but I am wondering if the GPU and CPU require for a bit more power now that the pc is running a bigger resolution through the new monitor.
I checked the psu voltage in bios and it is at 11.808V, which should be acceptable, but I wonder if the psu is capable of holding these numbers under load as well. I don't have a multimeter, that's why I need to wonder if there is any software to check my psu voltages under load? My pc does not reboot while at idle, it can stay on for hours, I have tested this. I have also checked if all cables are properly connected, and yes they are. The new resolution should not be too much to handle for the CPU & GPU as it is really nothing to special, 1680x1050 for a i5 3330 & GTX 1050 TI should be easy. I have a 550W PSU.
