My pc is restarting whenever I try to play a game. In the past, this happened after a few hours of playing, but now my pc can't take even 20 minutes.
At first I thought the problem could be the high temperature of the CPU, so I changed the thermal paste but it was no use.
During my research I was told it could be a ram problem, so I used MemTest86 but no errors were found. I tried to look at the windows event viewer and the only thing that caught my attention was the error: Kernel-Power 41 0x8000400000000002, but that just tells me that windows shut down the wrong way.
My best evidence for the problem was a test using OCCT. I tried different tests and all were well succeeded, even under stress the temperature of my CPU did not exceed 80 degrees celcius, but when I try to perform the power test my pc reboots.
Does this indicate that my PSU is not working properly? My PC works normally when I watch movies or use the internet. Only when I play or do the powert test does it restart. I don't have another PSU to test and I would like to be sure before buying a new one. I've already tried a fresh instalation of Windows 10. Could my mobo be the problem?
