I recently upgraded old pc...a i5-2500k/gtx 680 (built 8 years ago) to a new AMD Ryzen3600/Asrock B450 pro/GTX 1660S and its been a nightmare. I had no issues putting it together..worked without a hitch until I was playing a game,at first I thought it was just the game but all of a sudden in mid action it reboots, cpu was 60 for temperature, VC 63. It rebooted in a matter of second at which i tried the game again and this time it restarted on the menu for the game...cpu was 49/vc 51. Only thing I can think of that may or may not be coincidental is I set textures to ultra after about an hour+ of playing that first time. I had the same experience with another game as well ...again played for some time but not that long after putting it on ultra it restarted. I ran memtest, Heavens bench (on ultra with updated geforce drivers))for an hour, CPU-Z for an hour +...no issues at all. Seems to be a difference when actually playing a demanding game.
The only thing I can think of since it doesn't seem at all to be heat related is perhaps my psu, however this psu handled a way more demanding pc in terms of needed power. It's a 550 cooler master with the caveat that it too is probably around 11-12 years old now. If not for this I would love this pc..its running cool, quiet and so much faster than what I had. Any insight would be much appreciated!
