  1. pc restarts while only playing games


    i recently beilt a new computer and my setup is ryzen 9 5900x, 32gb 3200mhz, ASUS ROG Strix B550-E Gaming AMD AM4, 1000watt silverstone psu, 2070 super. my pc resets when i am playing games like rust and rainbow 6 seige. the thermals are fine and the cpu and gpu only got up to 200 watts of power while running the games. i dont know if it is the power supply or not. i have gotten new drivers and everything. Before i had a i7 9700 and 2070 super 750 watts and everything worked fine. i reseated the cpu ram and gpu and it still didnt fix it. i saw something that said my pc is too high end and i need to limit the core for the games but i cant figure it out. my cpu and gpu dont even get to %100 while playing the games so i dont know if it is the power supply.


    edit: i ran prime95 and furmark at the same time and they both got to 100% and it didnt crash. so it isnt the power supply.

    :)

  3. Issue when playing games

    Hello,

    This issue when you're playing games can be due to incompatible driver since it can be resolved by updating the display driver. However, we would like to know more about your concern. Kindly provide us the needed information below:

    • Which device are you using in playing games?
    • Is this issue happening when you're playing online or offline games?
    • Is there a connected USB device?
    • Are you getting any error messages?

    As an initial recommendation, we suggest that you try reinstalling the driver instead of updating it. Here's how:

    • Open Device Manager.
    • Right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device.
    • Select Uninstall.
    • Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Looking forward to your response for any updates.
