So i build a pc and everything worked out just fine, untill i installed pubg and my pc just instantly restarted.

i researched allot and i did all kind of tests with furmark, i tested my ram, nothing happened but the second i tried to test my pc with Prime 95 my pc restarted. i tried every test but they all restarted my pc, so can it be that my new psu ( evga supernova 750 P2 ) is a faulty one ? or can the problem be somewhere else still ?
I also tried to update drivers, reinstall windows 10 a couple of times so i'm pretty sure its not my drivers ( also tested the temps but everything seems just fine )
these are all my specs

GPU: gtx 1080 g1 gaming
psu: evga supernova 750 P2
cpu: intel core i7 7700k
ram: G.Skill DDR4 Ripjaws V 2x8GB 3000
cooling: noctua dh 15
motherboard: z270 gaming pro carbon
hard drive: samsung 850 evo 500 gb ssd
hard drive2: wd blue 1tb

What you found doesn't necessarily apply to your issue. To start with, you have a quality PSU with a single +12V rail. Unless it's highly overclocked, the CPU can't draw enough power from the PSU to cause reboots; besides stress testing the GPU doesn't cause a restart and it definitely draws more power than the CPU.

You think it's the PSU (test with another unit), but I suspect the motherboard (unstable VRM at full load). Tweaking voltages may help; you may be interested in threads like https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=283236.0


just did the test and it passed, i still think its my psu tho from all the topics i found about this
