Hello, i have a problem with my PC.
If i play a game, like GTA V CS:GO GTA IV, my pc reboots.
Also as i run AIDA64 for 1 second my PC reboots right away.
Ive tried to install a older driver, same problem i installed a newer driver same problem.
Also i tried to put my memory in a diffrent bank's same problem.
Its not a overheating problem my CPU onder load: 67
degrees
GPU onderload: 54 degrees...
I have a overclock on my CPU from 3,2 to 4Ghz i set the overclock back same problem 🙁

I think its a power supply problem i have the Corsair VS550.

Other specs:
CPU: Intel Pentium G3258 @ 4.0 Ghz
GPU: Gigabyte R9 380X @ 1000 Mhz
Ram Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB
SSD (OS) Kingston SSD Now 120GB
HDD (Storage) Western Digital Blue 1TB
PSU: Corsair VS550
Motherboard: Asrock B85M Pro3

(Sorry for my bad english)
Can some one please help me?
 
Solution
another thing to test: remove the video card and use the Onboard graphics (if you can) and open the AIDA64, see if it still does it, if so, you've fully ruled out your Video card, and at that point i would say that your RAM is the most likely cause (could easily be the PSU as the others have mentioned), maybe hold shift and click restart, in go to the startup options (Safe Mode, etc) and click the one for "Disable reboot on system failure". There might be a bluescreen that's just not showing.

No, if i have pulled out the GPU the problem is gone.
 


Ok, thanks for the help!

You'r sure that its the PSU?
I have the PSU a year now.
 


Well, the problem could still be your power supply not giving enough juice to the video card, if you had another computer to test the video card with, I'd say try that, you could also test it in a second PCIe slot if you have another one
 


Ok thanks for the help man!
