G'day all. I just bought a new MSI 4G GTX970. The installation went smoothly and hit 100 fps for the first time in my favourite title. ~5 minutes in, the PC suddenly shuts down midgame and automatically restarts but with no display. Using a HDMI cable in the onboard graphics I was able to check that it still booted to Windows fine and was usable. The 970 was not listed under display adapters in Device Manager yet appeared to be powered (light on card was on). I checked the PSU connection (8+6 pin) and they were fine (I'll try the other PCI slot on my mobo and maybe other power cables since my PSU is modular). I have a Corsair HX750 PSU which should be plenty for my system since I am not running overclocked. Any advice would be appreciated.
