    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    It's sorted. The fans are working now on the radiator so all fans are working. I have to go with the controller or i would have to rewire the fans as they are in a bigger connector

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    Pyro/Philpower2, Thank you for all of your help. I believe I have resolved the issues. I wasn't feeling using the old 1000W PSU as a final solution so I purchased an ASUS ROG Strix 1000W PSU and just went to task installing it tonight. I recabled everything and upon testing everything was...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    Yeah honestly i'm just trying to learn here. Yes the fans are only connected via 8pin connecters to the Controller, while the waterblock has that same connection but also one to a fan header on the MB. I've attached some pics sorry if the quality isn't good. Also, here is a link to the...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    I'm not dealing with Cyberpower, the warranty with Cyberpower is done and also they wanted me to send in the entire PC at my cost to California for repair. I'm just going to deal with the Video Card as it has a 3year warranty. If it's the PSU and they can tell me that's why my Video Card...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    Tried the driver thing no difference, if anything the problem is getting worse as my screen has flickered on me a few times and even did lock up once not even trying to play a game. But any stress test and like clockwork within 10-30seconds it crashes out. Guess we've really ruled everything...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    I was using a Thermaltake Toughpower PF1 750W but per previous discussion that wasn't adequate as ASUS says 850W minimum for my 3080 10GB graphics card. I then replaced that PS with one I had in my old system which is this power supply...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    I put the Video Card back in and uninstalled all Nvidia software and then went to Device Manager and uninstalled the Graphics Card but it finds the driver again and installs it moment later. I then ran the same stress test and was getting 325FPS at 1080 but then after about 8 seconds artifacts...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    I did what you suggested and while it was blazing at 6FPS at 4K Res and 16FPS at 1080 the system never crashed whereas with the video card it gets to full power and then crashes in 10-30seconds. What would you suggest for reinstalling drivers. I've had various iterations of the Nvidia...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    No joy. Replaced the power supply. Have some other issues to sort out when it comes to the CPU cooler and the fans not working on the radiator (don't think they have) but when it comes to crashing it still happens maybe even more so now. I think it's the video card. I try to run a stress...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    So as you might be able to tell this wasn't a custom PC build. I bought it via CyberPower. My mistake to think they wouldn't give you specs in a model that don't go together such as the RAM with the CPU and the GPU with the power supply. I've made the changed in the BIOS for the RAM and am...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    Sorry I changed it to Balanced not High Performance. I just opened up my old PC case and it has the below Power Supply: https://www.newegg.com/evga-supernova-1000-p2-220-p2-1000-xr-1000w/p/N82E16817438013?Item=N82E16817438013 Do you think this would be ok to swap out for the 750W...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    Ok I just changed the power back to High Performance, didn't even notice Norton Utilities had done that. My GPU requires only 2 8-pin connectors from the PSU. I believe this is my specific GPU spec page...

    Solved Gaming PC crashes when taxed in any Video Game

    All, I have been having a problem with my PC for several weeks now that it will work perfectly fine until I try to play video games with it. I can watch movies/videos, play emulator games, stream videos, surf the web etc. and rarely does it every have a single issue. However, the moment I...
