Question PC keeps rebooting when loading a match in a game. Different game works without issue.

[Gohanino]

Hello,

I have this weird issue with my PC that is roughly 3-4 years old.

When I am trying to load a match for one specific game, the pc just reboots itself. Very rarely it doesnt and the match plays fine until the end. After that if I try to load another, I get crash again.

The weird thing though is that loading and playing different game works without issue.

The game that crashes is Escape from Tarkov, the other game is any other. Usually Apex Legends.

I can also add that it doesnt happen if I just turned my PC on that day. The first few games seems to be fine. Yesterday I did 3 matches without any issue.

What could be the cause of this?

Thank you

• Are you sure CPU/GPU isn't overheating?
• Try lowering graphic's settings.

CPU and GPU temps are fine according to HWMonitor.
Graphic settings dont seem to influence it at all.

The problem is with the match loading. Once inside the match, it completes the match without any issue.

I ve also had this. Load > Crash, Load > Crash, Load > Crash, Load > match > match finished > Load > Crash

If it was CPU or GPU overheating the crash would happen inside the match as well, but it happens exclusively when loading into the match.
