[SOLVED] Pc Crashing on graphically intense games

[isbalke]

When I play games like Rainbow Six Seige and other graphically intense games like that (I can play games like minecraft and csgo completely fine)

I have factory reset my pc and it weren't fixed, all my temps are very good and i've redone thermal paste.

I also had my games on an external hard drive but I moved my games to my internal one and my games were working really great, but it started again.

Specs:
Intel i7-2600 CPU @ 3.4GHz
16GB Ram
Motherboard - Intel DQ67SW
500W PSU (I don't know how old it is as I bought the pc refurbished)
GPU - GTX 1060 6GB
Windows 10

Its probably the PSU, Due to your card pulling more power than the 12v rail can handle. More load = more power requirements.

does the system completely shut down?

It sounded unfinished, what I meant was When I play games like Rainbow Six Seige and other graphically intense games like that my pc will crash randomly in the game and reboot straight away (I can play games like minecraft and csgo completely fine) ****

If the system is rebooting, its power cycling. get a better PSU, and that will solve your problem.

This one is decent and cheap.

Just a quick question, will that psu be good for hardcore gaming? Like playing for hours straight at highest possible settings

Yes it will be fine for your current system needs

It's good enough. If you plan to upgrade in the future try to get 750W or 850W and gold or higher quality. The EVGA has 10 years warranty so it would be a shame to replace it in the future.
