[SOLVED] New Gpu: system restart itself...

[tostaky]

Hi !
Here's my pc spec
Xfx pro 550 watt psu
i5 4570
one ssd
one 1tb hdd

I change my radeon 7850 yesterday for a rx580. Since I was openning my pc i've done some dusting. I remove the cpu fan to clean it and I put it back on.

I was trying to start a civ 6 game but it would crash and restart the pc. I've use core temp app, and seen that the core goes up to 90 degrees ! I thought that this was the problem, Ive reinstall the CPU fan. It was fine.

Now, I make a video test with heaven benchmark, the temp goes up to 80 degrees, and the pc still restart , the same goes eith company of heroes 2, the temps are around 50 degrees so no overheating problem there, and the pc still restart itself...

So cpu, psu or gpu problem ? How to know it ?

Thanks in advance

I would first try if the system still run normaly from the iGPU by taking the GPU out and pluging the screen into the motherboard.

Could be your psu is a bit weak. But 80 still seems high. Did you put new themselves grease on? Also, what is airflow like?

 

[tostaky]

Airflow is ok I guess...

No grease but still.not.explain the restart at 50 degrees.

550 watt should be enough.

That psu was mediocre quality when new. If it’s as old as the rest of the system then I think this is the best place to start based on the description. Only way to know us trying another psu.

 

[tostaky]

Mediocre quality ? When I built my system it was considered to be on of the best bang for the buck, it was made by seasonic. Still could be the PSU !

Well only way to find out is swapping parts. GPU (happens that people get them faulty) in different system or different PSU. If cooler comes of CPU it will need new TIM!

 

[tostaky]

I dont have access to another system. What is TIM ?

 

[tostaky]

Can I try another cable ? I have a 8 pins (2x4 pins) not use can I use it ?

 

[ohio_buckeye]

TIM=Thermal Paste.

And if i change my Psu, what would be a good buy for my specs ?
