Occasional power cuts during gameplay
Occasional power cuts during gameplay
While gaming I'm facing significant frame rate drops and stuttering, ending in abrupt shutdowns. System details: Windows 11, Ryzen 5 2600, 1660ti, MSI b450m, Bazooka, WD Blue sn550 1TB SSD, T-Force VulcanZ with two 8GB drives at 3200MHz Corsair CX450M (80+ Bronze). Attempts to resolve: updated GPU drivers in Geforce Experience, ran sfc /scannow on system files (some corrupted), uninstalled and reinstalled drivers using DDU, which temporarily fixed the issue for a few hours before problems resumed after a restart. Attached minidump file.
Hi! Based on what you shared, it seems the issue might be linked to your power supply. When gaming, the CPU and GPU can consume more power, stressing the PSU beyond its capacity. That overload could trigger a shutdown.
