Question About A PSU

[Druzhina]

I'm having a HUGE issue with PSU's right now. I built my computer under a year ago, it's probably about 7 months old. The first PSU that I ordered (EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2, 80+ GOLD 750W) didn't work, so I sent it back and got another one (the one I've been using for the past 7 months). Now, I believe that one is crapping out on me. The reason why I think this is because I can use my computer normally, but when I start up a game and get in game my computer randomly shuts off and turns itself back on.

I paid a good $88-$95ish dollars for this PSU and I was just curious if all PSU's shit out this easily. Or perhaps the brand of PSU I have is just horrible? Possibly my issue isn't even my PSU.

Anyways, I'd really appreciate some feedback and some thoughts - or some help for that matter. If you take the time to even share your thoughts, thank you I really appreciate it.

Well, it's not because of overheating because I redid the thermal paste and everything.. And every time I google, "Why does my computer shut off when playing games", it'll redirect me to a post on here with someone saying, "Hmm.. Definitely the PSU." Therefore I can only assume as much.. Any idea of what else it could be?

I cant see why just playing a game would cause your PSU to go on a funny one. I would say it's either a CPU/GPU/Temp problem.

I redid my thermal paste and everything, I can literally start my computer after 5 hours of inactivity and it'll still crash on a game.

From reading that it seems that your problem may NOT be your PSU.

Alrighty.. So if it's not that then what is it?

seems your videocard has the issue
download https://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp/ and check your temp or remove the v.c. and use the built in videocard and see if it would still crush
