Game startup causes PC to restart.
Game startup causes PC to restart.
Over the past few days, my computer has been restarting unexpectedly after starting or playing games briefly. I’ve reinstalled my graphics drivers twice, performed numerous clean restarts, but the problem persists. This occurs similarly when I conduct stress tests on my graphics card with FurMark during a clean boot. It immediately fails to operate when I initiate the test at any setting above 960x540. I can typically execute the test at 960x540 successfully and haven’t experienced any restarts using lower resolutions. My graphics card appears functional, and temperatures remain within acceptable limits. I suspected a power supply unit issue, but I'm uncertain how to verify this and resolve it effectively.
Motherboard: asus rog strix b350-f gaming
Processor: ryzen 5 1600
Memory: 2x4gb hyperx fury 2133mhz
Graphics Card: asus rog strix gtx 1060 o6g
Power Supply Unit: corsair cx550m
Solid State Drive: kingston 240gb m.2
Hard Disk Drive: wd blue 1tb
In my opinion, the problem lies with the power supply unit. Do not attempt to repair a failing PSU yourself, as this could be fatal if you are not an experienced specialist or simply careless:
