Hello all,
I've been doing some looking into my PSU lately and i think i may have found my issue, but cant really tell.
Lately while gaming (ONLY WHILE GAMING) my computer will randomly power down, attempt to reboot, and the graphics card will not boot with everything else. For a while i assumed it was my graphics card, but im not so sure now.
After swapping wires here and there with my card, it occasionally works again but inevitably it shuts down again. Then i have to troubleshoot until it decides it feels like working again.
I've been attempting to monitor my voltage, and it seems to have some drastic drops and rises. From .91v to 1.4v. It says its supposed to stay around 1.2v.
I have a Thermaltake 750W Gold 80 PSU, and have only had it about a year now.
Thoughts? Is my hunch possibly correct?
Thanks!
