No, the PC will still work just some low power optimizations will not.

more explanation please ? I heard I can do something from Bios is that true ?

You can go into your bios, and disable C6/C7 state, and you should be fine.

It is because when haswell idle, it goes into a heavy sleepstate (If C6/C7 is enabled), which will use little voltage, some power supplies doesn't support this technology.

So disabling those won't put my cpu into sleep?
