I know Im bothersome with this all but I have a new question before I go out and buy new PSU for 70$ or so.
Is there a chance that the whole problem isint actually a PSU but something else in the pc (CPU, GPU?). It did turn off while browsing the internet but it was probably because of the whole fuses problem. Now fixed and after a day it didnt turn off while browsing. Only under heavy load (gaming) and after longer period of time (1-2h) PC shuts down, like pulling the plug out. Temps of CPU and GPU are normal, under load dont exceed 70C. Just for a test Ive start the same game and turned down all graphic settings to minimum and there was no problem yet. Ive also changed cables and power outlets.Comment

Pardon my two cents, but it might be worthwhile to download Speccy (free) - piriform.com and look at the temps under load. 70C is pretty warm. If your machine shuts down after 1-2hrs of heavy usage, it sounds like inadequate cooling.Comment

Im using openhardwaremonitor for that purpose, GPU never exceeded 65C ang CPU was max 67C on on core all under very heavy load after long time. During the summer on my old PSU temps on CPU were reaching above 70C at times but nothing happend back then even after very long use.Comment
