[SOLVED] PC shutting down while I start games

[Droidcsiga]

I need help 🙁 When I start the Steam, the Game shows up, but when the game want to starts, my PC shut down. I changed power supply, and it's enough for The GTX 680. (550W) and my CPU temperature is normal (I mean, it's under 50Celsius),so if my CPU is fine and my PSU too, what is the problem?I touched my cooler and it wasn't warm. The system is running fine if use normal (I mean if I don't start any games)

CPU : AMD PHENOM II X6 1055T with Deepcool edge mini

GPU : GTX 680

RAM : Kingstone 8GB 1333MHz

MOTHERBOARD : ECS MCP61M-M3

The 680 draws a lot of power.
Exactly what brand and model number is your power supply.
Some 550 watt power supplies shut down or blow up when wattage exceeds 300-350 range.
A slightly overclocked 680 can pull 200 by itself. 125 for the processor and you are looking at the limits of cheap 550 watt power supplies.

Both your CPU and GPU are very power-hungry.

Exact CPU and GPU temps under load?

Exact make and model of PSU?

I dont believe tacens makes ANY even remotely good power supplies.

You defintately will have issues with a very very low quality psu and your hardware.

You need a better quality psu.

Here's something you can try, assuming it isn't already disabled in bios...
In bios, disable automatic reboot on system failure. You should then get a BSOD with info about the problem.
If you don't... then get a psu that isn't cheap junk.

 

[NightHawkRMX]

I just googled the PSU. They clearly say the PSU isnt even 80+ certified, so they made up their own 85+ certification.

What kind of PSU do you prefer? And how much Watt

 

[NightHawkRMX]

550w is fine, just get a good quality PSU from a reliable brand.

Oh but some weeks ago , my motherboard wasn't worked and I thought it's the videocard,but I sent to a mechanicer and he also reseted the cmos 🙁

 

[NightHawkRMX]

But you said your friend has made some changes in the BIOS since then.

I would still try it since we do not know exactly what was changed in the BIOS.

I set the time correctly, cause the Windows shows up and i can use the Google, so everything is default now în the bios

Your power supply?
If so It does not even have PCI-E power cables. So you are running it off of adaptors? and is really only 408 watts on the 12 v rail.Not a 550watt power supply.

What PCIE connectors do you have plugged into your video card?

If you dont have these plugged in you will have issues, and im surprised you are getting any video.

Are you using a molex or SATA to PCIe adapter to plug these in by chance?

I plugged in these. I have a 6 pin and a 8 pin on my card like the licture, but i tried it with other videocard and same issue :/ I have 2 4pin from my PSU and more two 4pin on this two 4pin amd each one get two ending because my 6pin need two 4 pin and my 8pon need too.
